I have a few good ones but after enough waxing they came out thankfully. Really makes me wish I had a white or silver truck

Oh to be young again! No offense. I used to go muddin too. Now I go out of my way to avoid the mud on the road down the street caused by a trucking company driveway. Are fender flares an option? Maybe molded mud guards? Either way, nice truck. Now, about those wheel wells.:)

I totally agree. I have a major love/hate relationship with my black paint. For example, I gave it the 1st big wash after the winter season this past weekend. The next day when the sun was beaming down on it I was like "WTF happened?!". My wife came out to the garage wondering what I was swearing at. I told her "the f'ing black paint on this f'ing truck!". Needless to say, right now I hate my black paint. My birthday is next month and today my wife asked me what I wanted for my birthday....a buffer.

Yup I was the same way after our winter. They need to use more coats or a color matched primer or something just the smallest stick will leave a huge scratch it seems

Yeah you'd almost think they skipped the clear coat stage with how easy it scratches!

Sounds like me, I work for a trucking company and the driveway is always muddy from the trucks coming out of the mudhole yard, I have to go real slow.

The crazy part is that no one is allow to come within 10 feet of my truck and scratches still magically appear.

A black paint job is why I have only owned silver vehicles since 2004!
