IDK what you guys are going on about paint. On my last car, my front bumper was littered with paint chips, so I vowed that on this car I would keep a much greater distance between me and the cars ahead of me on the highway. And I have. So 18K miles into ownership, and the bumper is fine. Two or three little chips low on the bumper, maybe.
The rest of the car is totally fine. My garage may suck, but it is a garage.

Of course, we have other issues. Potholes come to mind.

No.... I mean literally a dump truck was losing its load on the highway. This is almost an every day occurrence. But you are right. Our roads are made up of crushed shale and shells. Black top delaminates easily in the high noon sun.

Knowing that your car is faster and can handle the road vastly better also helps. No point in getting all pissy with the Chevy Malibu who thinks they're King of the Road. That's just silly. You don't have a point to prove when you already know the score.

I always keep my distance, but it's true. It's just hard to avoid. I've had branches fall out of a tree cutting truck and hit my car.
Like, why would you think it's okay to have loose branches in the bed of your truck...?

OK, I take that all back. I have about a half dozen chips in my front bumper. And one in my grille.
Oh no-o-o-o-o-o!!! LOL

Thank you Brad, I just ordered the Motul 600. If everything goes well I'll receive everything tomorrow. Hoping for the best, the box with my calipers in it has gone missing in the UPS system... I'm biased but I'm really not a fan of theirs, called UPS "customer service" and they told me they couldn't do anything and I needed to call the store. I called the store and they said they couldn't do anything until tomorrow at which point they'll call UPS Corp to put a trace on it. But since it hasn't been scanned I'm not really certain what they would trace. Time will tell...
