About a month ago here in Eastern PA we got a really bad hail storm. In preparation I squeezed all three of my bimmers in the garge and parked the gf's hyundai under a tree to protect from falling hail.

A nearby car dealership was not so lucky. They had ~300 cars all with hail damage including a nice black 135 which ended up with about 20 dings all over the hood, roof, and trunk.

Crap. That would've been expensive to fix without insurance.

holy crap thats messed up!

I had a late night yesterday so I slept like a log, Tho I did wake up briefly cuz of the hailstorm. It was so damn loud. I'm also fortunate that I parked my in the garage last night. My family's Volvo CrossCountry on the other hand, I'll have to see if there's damage.
