anyone here have hail experience with the Mav? Never mind pea sized hail, I'm worried BB sized will crack the windshield.

My camper and Bronco Sport got hit with golf ball size hail when camping last summer. 7K damage to the camper roof and 6K damage to the Bronco Sport's hood, side panels, rear hatch, and roof including replacing a cracked windshield. Only fixed the Sport. New windshield and they did dentless repair to the 38+ golf ball sized dents. No paint/filler required anywhere and you couldn't tell where any of the dents were. I was amazed. It looked like it was still sitting new on the showroom floor.

With hail, size matters but not as much as velocity when it comes to causing damage, especially to windshield, rear or side glass. Think of when I toss an apple to you to eat vs thrown hard enough to bruise your noggin.

We had some hail move through last year and my Mav was caught in it. Hood, roof, and fenders were damaged. The windshield was fine.

thanks to everyone that has responded, I can just fit the truck under my carport (tetris'd with my toys), with just a bit of the tail end stickin' out
