I washed the TB yesterday, it was completely covered in mud. We were in a bad storm at the ranch west of Uvalde over the weekend. The TB is covered with hail dents!

It does happen... Sorry about your luck... I keep hoping my LeSabre that sits outside gets hail dinged, so I can keep the insurance money and not fix it, but it hasn't happened yet...

See if the dents make it more aerodynamic! 
according to mythbusters, it's possible.

Here is a pic of the hail from one of our game cameras about 1/4 mile from where we were.

Wow, that is a seriously cool picture. However I can see how that can be a bit rough on the truck. Just go get it muddy again, The mud will fill the dents and you will be good to go!
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

A buddy of mine did that on his Silverado! Looked pretty cool and he didn't have to worry about crashing through brush with it anymore.

I'm going to buy a new welder today. I'll be building a steel carport. Anchored with lag bolts into solid rock.
