Big storm came through last night... the F150 took heavy damage.
This was a good 90 minutes after the storm came through, I still had hail in the bed.

The passenger side got it.

Of course the hood received major damage and the roof. It is still drying off from the rain which keeps revealing more and more damage.

Man, that sucks. I know the feeling. happened to me several years ago when I had an 02 Silverado. My insurance company told me that if I took it to a particular shop and let them do the paintless repair, they would waive the deducable. So I did, and when I got it back, it was perfect, you could not find one mark. It had heavy damage to the hood, roof and passenger side.

Ugg been there before! I had a 88 thunderbird get hit by golf ball size hail like a week after I got stationed at Altus AFB Oklahoma in 1993. I was 19 years old and I paid for the car by working at McDonalds and a gas station before joining the Air Force. Watching it getting hammered to bits brought me to tears. Full coverage insurance paid me like $4000 which paid off the car with some to spare. Lucky enough the steel body thunderbird had some surprises left in her. Over the hot oklahoma summer nearly every dent popped out minus one in the top corner of the windshield trim.
I hope a hot summer can pop your dings out too. I also have heard using dry ice placed on the dents will make them pop out. Best of Luck!

I had serious hail damage on my truck also. The hail was so big it busted out the 3rd brake light. One side of the plastic hood cowl was also broken. Paintless fixed a few of the problems, but the roof had to be bondoed because of all the seams. One fender was also bondoed because it was hit right on the crease. The hood was completely replaced. Almost all of the black trim on the truck was replaced. For pics, check my gallery. It was almost $4,000 in damage.

Dry ice will pull some dents out - I have seen it in action.
I also had excellent luck with Dent Wizard - a paintless dent removal company in my area. The guy that worked for them actually did the work "on the side." He did it in his driveway - in about an hour and didnt charge me full price.
