Plus no dead bugs to clean off the front of the car and the car's body remains mostly clean of dirt and salt spray.
That's quite a bit of savings. I don't drive a ton though. Maybe 7,000 miles a year, so i'm just trying to figure out my best course.

Thanks for chiming in though, I loved that deer getting hit by the race car video you posted. Pretty amazing.
