Actually I hate it when people come up to the side of my truck and lean against it and there big belt buckle is just scratching the crap out of my paint.

I hate it too but after a recent 2,000 mile interstate road trip in the white FX2 I have more small pits and chips from stones, pebbles, gravel or whatever else gets kicked up in front of me. Time for some Oxford White touch-up paint. Then there's the woods. Go in hunting and you'll get branch and brush scrapes on the sides, most not too deep. And the kids jumping in and out of the bed, the scouts loading up their stuff, buddies leaning against the bed, (truck beds are magnets for hanging on and BS'ing while zippers and other hardware rub the paint) it can all leaves marks here and there. It's a relief to put the first ding in something just to get it over with. Sure I hate finding someone else's rub but it's going to happen. I'd touch it up and move on. It's going to happen again.

I agree with this, it's a truck, I will be using it off-road etc. BUT the issue here is that it wasn't intentional and it wasn't me who did it. If I got this scratch from me driving through bush then different story
