What ? PLAN AHEAD ! There's no planning for a deer that decides to bolt out in front or into the side of your vehicle from over an embankment or from thick brush / wooded area . This has to be the dumbest ( ) thing stated on this topic so far .

The real problem here is the deer. If they had more psi in their hooves, they would have better control at full stride and thus be able to avoid traffic much easier.

So your saying you dont have the ability to forsee 5 seconds into the future to make planned decisions accordingly. And I thought i was the only one.

It's called driving slower when you are in a known trouble area. I am surprised that you were not smart enough to figure that out for yourself.

I hope you're never involved in an accident, no matter who's at fault, but if you are I hope you're smart enough (and brave enough) to tell the officer and the adjuster that you run double the psi that Toyota recommends. But what am I thinking, you've already convinced your insurance agent to run double psi to save fuel, like you're doing, yes?

Yeah. Thats why i just stopped responding to his post and future posts. Some people will belive they are right no matter what evidence you bring up to prove they are wrong. And they will try to find a flaw in everything you say to them or use as evidence in order to keep saying they are right. Its just a waste of time those type of poeple can not be reasoned with.

I agree with these comments 100%. Can't believe some people's logic. I guess some posters are one with nature....
