After the first few minor scratches i decided to full wrap the truck in PPF. I did Xpel and the whole truck self heals small scratches now. I didn't want to ruin my paint. best decision ive made besides buying the damn thing.
What did that cost you?

This is why I carry an assortment of shrub trimming tools. I still get scratches from time to time, but the tools prevent the big ones. Your truck has, or had, the markings of a warrior. Just think, you could have parked your truck in a mall garage, with the ever-shrinking spaces, and come home with 3 door dings and no good memories to talk about.

Machetes can be dangerous though when your fighting your way out of a Slot Canyon:banghead::banana-mario::grd::favorites68:09AC1CBC-1482-4533-9D39-D5DAF0EE018D.jpeg5B34FF9F-CC3C-4595-8866-40EC0AAA3B94.jpeg341CBB4B-CAF9-45DB-8085-ED82A597613F.jpegCEBFE1A4-CA7A-4D75-AA93-455C17A10FB1.jpeg3E0450CF-7CD6-4966-B519-8908EE84BDD1.jpeg

I get the therapy thing, that’s why I spent a week detailing my engine compartment when I was giving it a major tune up, it’s like meditating for the OCD. 5A5332CF-20BA-4DC9-BDD3-557CA095D618.jpeg
I’ve been contemplating wrapping my Raptor myself, I might practice on my sons truck first.

Neither, I took everything off and washed and detailed it all piece by piece
