Now you know where the damage from your car is coming from.

This is of course assuming it remains in your driveway while you are on the sub.

i say you make all 4 of them push till they tell you who did it. Maybe thats a little harsh, but I was in the Marines and thats how we would roll ;-) Although my son is probably gonna hate me by the time he turns 9 :-|

Really? So you let a $30,000 car sit in the outside elements while you store $200.00 worth of junk in your garage?

I live on the same base as you and I have seen your car...sweet ride by the way. I am also a submariner....small world I guess.

I would definitely garage that thing every day. Just the sprinklers in our housing area is bad enough to make me garage mine every day. SAVE your ride now before it's worse next time. You need as little stress in our line of work as possible while underway.

They steal those, so not much help there.
The camera is a good idea IF... you can identify the perpetrator.

The Expedition needs to stay out, period.


Oh, and sell the kids, get a GT500!

Pass on the GT500. They are drool worthy, but im buying a Raptor SuperCrew with the new 6.2 motor as my next vehicle.

I love my Mustang, but on paper that Expy is a $50,000 vehicle. It gets preferential treatment for now. Glad i didnt pay that much for it, but i still paid alot.

Btw, kids are a retirement backup plan. I'll be that crotchety old bugger living in their basement and they'll all argue about who has to keep Dad

Car covers are a bad idea in Hawaii. Too much wind beats the sh#t out of them and rubs the paint off.

Sorry about the damage. That blows.
