Default Hit a deer in my wife's Lexus on sunday night

Coming home from our daughters house out in a rural area. We almost took my RCF to our daughters house. So glad we didn't. I saw the deer coming from across the road on the left and was able to slow down quite a bit. Road speed limit is 55 and I managed to slow down to 20-ish before hitting the doe. No body damage!!! broke the chrome colored bezel on the driver side fog light and popped the parking sensor out of the drivers side front ground effects. That was the only damage.

Sorry to hear that. Glad both of you are OK and safe. That is the most important thing as things including RCF can be replaced. Though, I agree it is very fortunate you did not take the RCF as it is a unicorn nonetheless especially relative to your other Lexus. I recently had my first windshield rock chip on my RCF while being stuck behind an 18 wheeler while giving a joy ride to my wife, kids. I was later kicking myself for not taking the RX450h afterwards LOL. Good thing is, I got the rock chip repaired it is barely noticeable.
