My 2018 got caught in a massive hail storm yesterday. I’ve heard that it is really difficult to get the dents out on a Raptor.

Any one have any experience with hail damage?

Pictures might better help understand what kind of damage and how difficult repair may be.

I'm in the same boat, hit with baseball sized hail last nigh, just got done getting the claim process started, if they think they are going to cut the roof off, I'll make them total it, they are never the same......

Man that sucks. I got lucky about a week ago. Had baseball size hail here in Houston. Just pulled Raptor in the garage when it started. The roof of my house didn't fair as well. Having to replace it again.

I left the truck out, woke up to tornado sirens at 11:30 pm, 3 tornados in 45 minutes, I'm lucky, just a destroyed roof/skylights/gutters on the house and a dicked up truck, just the roof, LR door and LoMax tonneu cover.

I will say that we made national news and the Governor declared it a state of emergency. I am very grateful, I have a house left, my car is drive-able and we are alive.

Glad to hear you made it through with limited damage. A group of us here in South Texas are organizing a supply run to help you guys out since everyone helped out down here during Hurricane Harvey. Keeping you all in our prayers and wishing you the best.

Sorry to hear that. Colorado gets hail, a lot. I have wondered how the F-150's do with PDR (Paintless Dent Removal) being aluminum bodied. Anyone have experience?
