No seriously. A buck ran into the side of my WRX on the highway and did a tremendous amount of damage. The day we got my car back, a buck stepped out in front of my girlfriend's Civic (with me in the passenger seat) and did $12k in damage. A full grown buck looks quite large when you are sitting down low in a little Civic. Needless to say, we are paranoid of deer right now.
We both want SUV's, most likely with brush guards. If there was a Mad Max version of the Jeep, we would probably go with that. My girlfriend is due for a new car here in the next couple of months, and neither of us have ever owned a Jeep or SUV, so we are trying to do our research and get some information from enthusiasts.
Her potential Jeep:
Any advice is appreciated

Her potential Jeep:
- Probably 4-door Unlimited
- Maybe new, maybe a couple years old (need to do more research into depreciation of the different scenarios)
- Probably Automatic
- Not sure about V6 vs the 4
- Definitely will get a large brush guard so that we can feel a little safer on the road
Any advice is appreciated
