My 2025 Tremor has already (900 miles) got chips (one shown) and a ding clear through to metal (just above finger). Bug deflector here I come!

My white 2025 already has several chips on the side somehow. Super chip prone paint.

Most vehicles nowadays have crappy paint. Have very thin paint on my Passat as well. Thank you EPA and to the penny pinchers at the manufacturers.

18,000 miles on my 2024. Oxford White. 3 rock hits to the window (sealed myself with the Rain-X kit off of Amazon) About 5 small paint chips on the hood and both front fenders. Sealed with touch up paint. Didn't seem to get as many rock hits or chips on my 250's. May be the height off the pavement.
