Default Duramax vs. Bear

Well last summer i got into a little scrum with a black bear on 17 goin upstate (NY). Well lets just say the duramax won, but with a few scratches.... just body damage, no harm done to the frame or engine thank god, total in damages was over 10,000. I hit the ***** broad side at about 75 mph and also took out about a bakers dozen of those big traffic cones that are about 3ft tall with the rubber at the bottom haha. Oh and he was just a little guy at about prob 250lbs
