I second the motion on the Bull Bar/Deer Catcher idea. At least you have a fighting chance of minimizing the damage. There IS the hoof or antler that could stab into the radiator nonetheless...
You drive what you drive. You know what you need and feel comfortable in. Hypermile what you drive. BUT in deer country, you should have some front-end protection. The drive between Wolf Creek Pass to Durango, Colorado has tons of deer and there is invariably someone pulled over who just hit one. Carcasses are everywhere. It doesn't matter if you are driving 5 mph or 55 mph, those suckers just walk out in front of you, or run into the SIDE of your vehicle! Not the smartest animals.
