    Just need to vent, 2 months ago something popped of the highway and hit my drivers door scratched the hell out it and dented it. I have no idea what it was because it was at night. Yesterday when i was pumping gas I look down at my wheel , guess what ! Two huge scrapes on my rims, ugly looking . Its not curb rash because the inner part is scratched, not the edge. The highway is beating the shit out my truck. Hard to keep anything nice... :(

    That's why I bought a truck, to not care when it gets beat on.

    Too poor to list anything interesting.
    You could put some 3M film on the paint where you think it'll get scratched a lot.

    What I did is just learn how to detail. Bought the tools and gear I needed to take out scratches from trails and assholes.

    It's hard to keep a pristine truck when you use it for daily driving.

    enough to go over stuff
    That's sucks. My truck has tons on dings and scratches but the mods distract the eye from seeing those.

    You could bed-line your Tacoma.

    I might care more about my truck if I got it new.
