Any idea what you hit?
Silly utility post that I knew was there. I can't figure out in my mind even after 3 months the virtual dimensions of this rig from the driver's seat. Weird. Going to pay a stupid tax -)

Those kinds of things are inevitable. One of those little bottles of touch-up paint should fix it up well enough.

I feel you, I still have trouble getting it centered in a parking spot.

Drives bigger than it is if that makes sense . front and right side are hard to judge distance . fortunately I have bugflector on front and leaning forward can see upper end to judge front when pulling into parking spot .

It's taking me for a loop - I can drive anything on earth but this thing.

OUCH I feel you man. I got chewing gum on my driver's side door which melted in the sun, dribbled down the entire door and hardened into an impenetrable substance hitherto unknown to man.

I eventually got it off using a green scrubbie soaked with oil. Of course it scratched the living shit out of the paint A few hours with an orbital polisher, polishing compound and polish finally got it off.

Not even a month and already I have a dent in my hood and screwed up paint on the door. Why can't we just have our nice things in peace?

Had a kick up stone scrape the hood. I thought I had just seen my first blemish! Had a bottle of clear coat compound as was able to rub it out!
