rpowell25 Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 This morning: This afternoon; Fucking bear at 50mph. Literally jumped right out in front of me...no warning at all. Quite bummed. Quote Link to comment

rpowell25 Posted August 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 I'm good. The bear walked away...we could not believe it. Here is some hair: And some shit: Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Since noone's asking... you okay? After reading this... I looked at the picture again. Is that an airbag? Quote Link to comment
rpowell25 Posted August 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Both airbags deployed. In fact the passenger airbag actually broke the windshield. I was the only person in the car. Quote Link to comment
DAT510 Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 It would probably be wrong to laugh... but the shit across the car is hilarious.. sorry.. I'd expect some parts of the car to penetrate through the bear... and leave some meat behind or something.. but the bear walked away!!! at 50mph! unbelievable! Quote Link to comment
rpowell25 Posted August 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 It was funny. I mean, what can you do but laugh? My friend was behind me in his Z and his description of the bear flying though the air after impact was priceless. I am just happy it wasn't the Dime...I may have had to go to the hospital.

Trophy24 Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Sorry about your car man. Glad you are ok. Would have loved to see the bear fly tho! Quote Link to comment
HRH Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 That bear may have walked away, but if it shit down the side of the car, it's likely crawled off to die somewhere. Sucks for the Evo, and for the bear. :( Quote Link to comment
rpowell25 Posted August 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 That's what we surmised as well. i reported it to the Rangers and they said they would follow up but that the bear would do just as you said. Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 My teacher was driving a Cadillac Deville and a bear stepped out infront of him as he was going 65mph. Bear flew, cadillac stopped. Bear got up and walked away. Quote Link to comment
Tice Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 That's crazy, dude. Glad you're ok Quote Link to comment
cdub42 Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 And some shit: guess that answers that question. same thing happened to me with a deer and my camaro.. ended up trading the camaro for some Z cars. Quote Link to comment
VintageRice Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 My first reaction was PHEW!! it wasn't a datsun......... Observations. One: shoulda had a gopro on for the acrobatic bear. Two: Internal bleeding = dead bear = go find him and get a rug made !! Three: Get big monies for your car(insurance) then buy it back and have the first 510 with an EVO swap ! = WIN Quote Link to comment
rpowell25 Posted August 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 VintageRice, the swap discussion did come up at the tow yard. Lotsa fab but it would be sweet! Quote Link to comment
Jdm720 Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Here is some fur..... and some shit :rofl: Quote Link to comment
rpowell25 Posted August 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Update! Insurance Co has decided to fix it! Estimate is 14K....yikes! No ETA yet. Guess this is karma telling me to get back to work on the 510. Quote Link to comment
Shagy Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 I'm SO glad it wasn't the 510. Glad everyone is okay... so if a bear shits in the woods.... Oh its getting run the fuck over by Robert. 1 Quote Link to comment
