***COMMENT***

While this is not my post I want to add that I don't believe that "excessive" chipping should be limited to 10 or more chips. 1 or 2 small chips is one thing but when all of your doors and/or fenders have at least one chip, and it doesn't add up to 10, I certainly still would call it excessive. I can come in with 10+ now but wouldn't have been able to earlier yet I still would have called it excessive. A new truck shouldn't chip like this.
