Hail!

[lukecp]

We had a big thunderstorm about 8:00 this morning in my town. I pulled into the school parking lot about 7:50, and saw a huge thundercloud in the distance, and heard lightning cracking. About 5 minutes later it started to rain, and then small hail started to fall. Another few minutes later, the hail was 1" to 2" in diamater. My truck was of course un-protected in the parking lot. I went to look at it, and my hood is now trash . It has 50+ small dings all over it, and a couple big ones. The top of my cab is the same way, with many little dings and two big ones. The rest of my truck did OK, it has about 5 or 6 other small dings scattered around the front fenders, doors and bedsides. I only have liability insurance to add to the problem. The rest of my truck isn't that nice, the cab has rust in the rockers, a little in the floor, and plenty above the windshield, and it needs one bedside. So, this is either an excuse to dump some money into the body of my truck, or find one with a better body......

BTW, almost every car in town that wasn't garaged has hail damage, so business should be great for local body shops, lol.
