Default BIG BIG PROBLEM

Well my 02 mustang hasnt had a problem.....till now. Early one morning on my way to school it was dark like 630 AM and I was behind a UPS truck and I just saw a dead deer at a glance and had no where to go. Ran straight over the deer. 3 of my 4 neon tubes busted and my left side exhaust ended up hitting and cracking the rear bumper.


thats not the problem,

I changed my oil yesterday only to realize that there was no way there was 5 qts in there.
but today after lookin under the car there was no oil but what seemed like transmission fluid.
I have checked under my car but can see no "leak"

Any advice here guys?

Im driving the 5.0 for now but any help is greatly appreciated

i Think the BIG BIG PROBLEM that you have with your mustang is that there are neon tubes on it....

If you an auto, check your cooling lines, they could have easily gotten damaged
