My truck is getting pounded with hail!!!
San Antonio hasn't seen a solid rain in months and then this. It was 10 minutes of solid hail. 3/8" - 3/4". Not cool.

Not to be a smart-***, but why didnt you take it to a car wash or bank drive through to protect it?

Because I did not want to increase the chance of dents and a broken windshield by driving through it.

Me and a friend were driving home from Dallas in that mess last night coming back from picking up my 22's. I-35 was a mess.

I like how the storm broke up over Houston and completely skipped my part of Pasadena. Not even a drop of rain baby!
