Dang Jerri, you're brutal.... poor critters..

Glad we don't have any armadillos around, that would've done a little more damage, I assume.

About me being sure if it was a coyote, yeah, I'm 99% sure. I've heard people talk about having them around our county and I've seen 2 others run across one of the back country roads on 2 diff occasions. They ran with lightning speed, faster than I've ever seen any dog run. First time I saw one I was amazed at how fast it shot across the country road. But anyway, yeah and what you all discribed, "~40 lbs, medium sized dog". Yep. It was mostly grey with white highlights on the belly and lower area. When I went back to look at it, it's eyes were open (it was dead as a doornail<---- whatever that is) and it looked really wild. Its face was kinda thin and streamline. Too large and grey to be a fox.

What surprised me is that a coyote would do something stupid like that. Someone suggested that it could've been rabid and gone insane...

Anyways, I think I can probably get the foglights, fix the fiberglass part behind the bumper cover, and paint for under $200. We'll see. ....
