You mean Farmer's, no? "We are Farmer's. Dum da dum dum dum dum dum!" What a goofy jingle that is.

Randy, glad to hear that you are ok and the bear was well enough to get out of there. I agree with the swerving. If I saw something that large at speed, then I'd slam on the brakes. But if I don't stop soon enough, then its gonna get hit. Too dangerous to swerve at high speed. You litteraly did knock the poop out of that bear.

Just for the hell of it, I searched for a replacement airbag for my old 1999 Audi A4. I saw prices from $40 to $60 on ebay for an OEM one with the plastic cover to fit a three spoke steering wheel. Pretty cheap. I guess it depends on the car. Have seen some for other models go up to over $200.
