    I was wheeling with some TW guys on a night run. They decieded to camp and stay the night but i had to go home. So i headed down the trail in the dark and took a wrong turn. I got stuck so bad that when I got winched out a tree scratched the side of my truck.

    Just got mine, and was happy it didn't have any on the exterior. Not bad for a 2004 that came out of the mtns of North Georgia. However the bed is a different story entirely. This is why a Line X bed is in my near future.

    I have more scratches than I can count. I have a dent on my rear passenger side from a piece of wood. Plus my bed is worse, I don't have a truck for nothing.

    Man let me tell yall!!! i was at walmart for like 5 mins. Parked next to the cart thing. When i came out there was a a scratch from the back door all the way to the taillight. i was pissed. of course no one was around no note nothing. so i went to autozone or one of those places and bout what must be seamen from the gods (its a white-ish liquid). Its called turtle wax rubbing compound premium grade clear on safe coats, removes medium to heavy oxidation swirl marks & scratches. ended up spending 2 hrs on my truck but now i have no scratches and i barely applied much efforts just took a lot of swirling of the rag. highly recomemend buying it.
