    In reply to Five-Point Frenzy: When Deer Meets Car
    There are a couple of places along the interstate near here that are notorious for deer--they mostly graze along the road side but a lot seem to die trying to cross to get into the median--a tiny strip of trees. I keep wondering when the deer culture will learn that there is nothing in that median worth dying over; there's nothing really in there at all ever, except for state troopers now and then, which by and large are not edible. Maybe I'm wrong; maybe that's what it is all about, deer stalking troopers.
    Or maybe Hunter (how ironic) Thompson was right--though he was talking about jack rabbits--bored, boring life--wait for a car, then go for the thrill of trying to beat it across the road. Deer hooning, maybe.

    @Novaload: LOL! Deer hooning.

    Some say he enjoys browsing for leaves & berries. Some say he has an almost pathological fear of men in orange vests. All we know is... he's called: The Stag.

    Why, when I clicked on pic #7 (first one I went to), and saw the: "Ah ha ha! Deer on bus! Deer no ride bus — bus ride deer! Ah ha ha!", etc., did I immediately know (without checking prior) that Sam was the one who had written this article?

    The lack of deer-in-the-backseat of Richard's 1967 GTX convertible tells me this blog entry needs a little more Chris Farley.

    IT'S ALIVE!!!

    there is no universal guide for tying a deer to a car

    Catch the deer in a lasso, make it run behind the car to your house, then blow its brains out in the driveway.

    Problem solved!

    Last I heard, around here, you hit it, you git it.

    I saw a deer bent into a U by the side of the road on my way in to work this morning. Maybe if the truckbed hadn't been full of pallets...no. I don't mind hacksawing off the head - it's hacksawing off the feet that gives me the willies.

    I'd have included the corncob car in the list. It's light, aerodynamic, has a pedestrian-friendly skin, and can be constructed from renewable materials.

    Best of all, any cornfed kid in the heartland can make their very own car.

    Not so sure lemon wheels would be good for an open-air car -- at least without wearing goggles.

    As much as I enjoy all the fun and silliness you guys get up to at Jalopnik, it is the genuine love of cars epitomized by this selection that has made me a fan. Great choices - an instant short list for any car loving lottery winner (maybe the Roadster/MX5/Miata over the RX8 but kudos for at least mentioning the STi)- and great writing (I almost started to get choked up reading some of it). You made my day.

    @superbmtsub: I took this photo…not mis-matched. I think the aperture value and focal length makes it look a little…off.

    I would add the new SHO to the list. I've gotten to drive one on a long trip. It's as good as anything I've ever driven. Better, in fact. Don't count America out.

    So, how come Gawker got the nice car and Jalopnik gets the corncob?

    Oh wait, never mind.
