Default Hail!

Was looking out the window and all the sudden a big 'ole storm rolls in. It was coming down in buckets. I hadn't put the F-150 in the garage since I was going to go out later. While I am watching a total monsoon, hail starts pounding window! Yahh! I scrambled up and out in the pouring rain and hot-tailed it into the garage. Not sure if I have any damage. Hail was pea-sized. Festa ST was out during it as well gotta inspect that tomorrow. I hope no damage!

You’ll be fine with pea sized hail. This is what I had bouncing off the parked truck this weekend. No damage.

Damn! I have to leave my truck parked outside and I get paranoid of this. I need to pick up a nice cover.

Got hit by a hail storm in Texas a couple weeks ago. Was doing 80 mph when it hit. Lasted about 3 minutes. Not a scratch.

Pea size shouldn't be an issue at all
