    Touch up paint and polish it with a buffer. You should be fine bro. Besides, you can't call it a truck until it gets its first nick or dent. Lucky for you, you didn't have to wait long. That's what my dad would always say.

    Dude, I feel for you. I had a similiar situation with my truck. I purchased my 09 Access Cab on a Tuesday afternoon. I was driving to work the very next day, Wednesday, at 2am in the morning when I hear a loud thump on the Windshield. There are no cars in front or in back of me. I didnt go under any over passes. I'm thinking WTF. I turn on the map lights, look, and see nothing. Sigh of relief. Then 8am in the morning, suns out, I go to my truck for a break. F'n A.... I see a chip/crack on the upper left of the windshield. Fortunately, the dealer was able to fix it for $50 and not replace the glass.

    I know how you feel. Last weekend I was packing up my '09 to go camping, when I noticed a three inch crease in the rear passenger fender. No paint damage, but judging by the height and shape, I'd say some jackass in an SUV opened their rear door. I just don't know how anyone could be stupid enough to open their door that bloody hard. Way I see it though, trucks are supposed to be beat up a tad... just pisses me off as I'm hoping to upgrade when the lease ends in 2 and a half years.
