OK, the acorns won...
Guess I'll stop parking in the driveway for a few more weeks...
Found half a dozen dings in my hood at lunch today just as I was thinking I would escape this season unscathed. My own fault. I knew they were falling and hitting the truck but didn't notice any dings until today (and in 4 years, my 2011 had no dings in the hood from acorns). Sorry no pics, just had to vent a little... FWIW, in 15 years, I've never seen this many acorns from my trees. |
Nature will always win :)

Wow, sorry to hear. Must be a tall tree? I have noticed my trees have a heavy crop of acorns as well. I guess with the aluminum body it is much more susceptible to anything acorns, hail, pine cones, etc.

Geez...I didn't think a little acorn was capable but I guess if it's up a ways, physics turns against you.
That sucks, sorry to hear it! I will stay away from trees with acorns now that I heard this. |

Think I better stay away from the black walnut trees..

I believe F-150s have had aluminum hoods since 2008.
