Default First Road Trip, First Scratch!!

Well it finally happened. When passing a semi a rock was kicked up
and put a 2 inch scratch on the hood of our PT! I almost cried when
my wife pointed it out to me.

On the other side we did get 32-33 MPH and that was going 80 most
of the way.

Ow! Those &^%^%^*($%^#$^ semis! When they toss a rock it becomes an ICBM headed straight for your car! Too bad we can'r just put some sort of invisible shield around our Crusiers.

Great gas mileage. The Cruiser's gas mileage does seem to get batter the more it gets broken in.
