Just Hailed..




just started hailling real hard about 30 mins ago and it lasted a good 5mins of non-stop ponding on the roof of the dorms.. those pics are after they had some time to melt.. it's like 60 degrees.. :

I had to check the truck..

did not see any damage, but felt some new dings on the roof.. thank god I bought the edge hood, it cant get dings.. glass seemed fine, all new plastic parts seemed fine.. Ill see the full extent once the sun comes out.. but alot of the cheap cars like aveos and neons got punished worse than my old hood..

guess I need to find the ding king..

put this in exterior as it just hailed on the exterior of my truck

Hello is Shaniqua there?
Nah, Shaniqua moved out last year

You mean Shaniqua’s brother?
Man, can't you just leave me alone,
this ain't Shaniqua's house, this ain't her phone,
this ain't her phone
And don't call back again, cause if you do you know the answer man

Shaniqua don't live here no more
Shaniqua don't live here no more
Shaniqua don't live here no more
Is Shaniqua there?

Originally when I bought my truck (from Tennessee) it had over 200 small dings in it (from Katrina) and I didnt know it till I got it home. It cost over $1000.00 to fix them all and the dealership I bought it from got it covered with their insurance that they got for that particular storm. Needless to say I was pleased.
But hail is no fun stuff and neither are dings in your truck.

Be glad you werent at my house A month or so ago Kevin we had hail ranging in size from golf ball to almost softball size I had just pulled in the garage when it pounded away . My gun dealer lives not far from me and his Tahoe and his daughters dodge both had all the windows broke out and severe body damage insurence gave hime over 4K for the damage to both .

And this morning was rough bro we couldnt see , I was using the little bumpers in the lanes to tell were we were going on the way into work .

Fx sorry to see all that damge hopefully you can fix it .

Ding king works.. but not 100%..

most of those dings are still visible.. but not as deep.. thats about it.. and the little ones are impossible.. counted 32 new dings on the roof..


how hot was it in kilgore when that happened? everything over here melted fast..
