    Yep believe it or not I hit a turkey on the way to the beach. It was huge it flew out in front of me and smashed my passenger side fender. So of course it doesnt meet my deductible of $500. The messed up part is I just got the car painted and the shop cant guarantee they can match the flatness lol. So i gotta get a new fender and a new paint job. Woohoo!!!

  3. I hit a turkey on the way home from the beach last year...in my mom's outback, not the wrx.. but took the mirror right off... I'm not surprised it did that much damage to your car... it sounded like we'd hit another car when I hit it... poor turkey... :wtc:

    I saw one leap into the side of a passing cargo van once. It exploded into a billion feathers, and was definitely the best part of driving through Virginia.

    I don't know if they are actually turkeys, (female ones maybe?) but they are all over the place and suicidal near hiram/dallas in some spots.

    There are some funky turkeys out in Villa Rica as well. They're not the standard kind that I'm accustomed to seeing.

    They freak me out. I was walking one day and a whole flock of them started following me. I swear to you.
