    Had golf ball sized hail rain down upon our vehicles last night.

    Both the Tacoma and Legacy wagon took a beating.

    Now I have to see if it's worth fixing both versus the premium hike.

    The Legacy's hood is fine, it's just the roof that took a decent amount of damage. It's an '06 so the body is such cheap crapola.

    I haven't had the chance to thoroughly examine the Tacoma, I had to get to work and the wife is driving the truck today. Will look at it and take some pics this afternoon.

    I dodged this bullet. Storm was mile north of my work, we had tornado sirens going off for a few hours though.

    The ironic thing is, next weekend is when I start building our carport

    (the garage is too small to house any vehicle)

    In the end, it's just a body of a vehicle. Luckily no one/the house got hurt.

    Solar panels are fully intact too :eek:

    I tried taking pictures, but I couldn't capture the extent of the damage. In fact it's pretty hard to see the depression of the dents at all in the photo(s)

    The Legacy's roof is what took the biggest beating. Approx. 20 dents on the roof alone.

    Don't you just love paying insurance every month, every year, just to have a premium hike because of something you couldn't control? Insurance companies are among the most hated industries in the world and with good reason.
