If I had my kids story would have been different. Just me, I didn’t care as much lol. However insurance totaled it. Probably going for new model even though exterior isn’t as nice to me.

Just a thought, get to a window tint shop. I put a strip on the winshiewin that covers the vision line that would be covered by the visor, I believe about 4 inches. Its 35% darkness. No more visor

Glad you are ok. My best friends only son was 19 when he swerved to miss a deer on a two lane out in Wyoming. Hit it anyway. His car rolled and he paid with his life. Every day his parents grieve their loss. JUST HIT THE CRITTERS...THEIR LIFE WILL NEVER BE WORTH YOURS!

Naw I rather not kill a dog. Truck is just dollars and insurance. Hitting deer doing 60-70 is different going that fast. I drove 18 wheelers for a while and have drove straight through things, as you can’t make major corrections in a big truck. I was going 30, sun in eyes, just swerved. It’s a wide road but I was closer to curb than I thought. Not sure about red flags. Never had accident before.
I feel for you buddy-I try to avoid any living thing on the road and will swerve around them as long as it doesnt put me into oncomming traffic-everyone can tell you what to do -but in a split second they may have done exactly what you did-I would get the frame checked and go from there-it may be OK. Glad your OK!

It is hard to believe that the grill looks like it is still in one piece.
