Ya I suppose it's a personal thing ... some people would have their car parked outside if they took the train. Mine would have had it's ass hanging out at ground zero if I drove today.

The only person who will be happy is Hevishot. A55hole owns an autobody shop, he probably did a money dance while he watched out the window.

I wonder if they didnt have time to spray this bad boy to prevent the hail, it seemed to appear out of nowhere

The skies in the NW were getting pretty dark and black about an hour prior to anything coming from the sky. There was also a bit of lightning minutes before the hail started.

My car's suffered a few dents on the roof after being outside in the NW. A lot of trees took a beating too.

When I see hail I think "free paint job!"

Car was parked at the University. Big huge dents all over the car. At least the windows didn't get smashed open like a few poor souls next to me.

I've been on hold for 30 minutes, than they came up "We are currently having a fire drill, please call back in 45 minutes".

TD has to have the worst customer service on the planet. If I didn't get a group rate, I would have switched years ago.
