WHEN I TOOK THE TRUCK INTO THE DEALERSHIP, I WAS STILL UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY. ISTEAD OF DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT, THEY BLAMED IT ON ACID RAIN. WHEN DRIVING AROUND YOU SEE THE SAME MAKE, FROM THE YEAR 91' TO 93', PEELING IN THE SAME SPOT. I REALLY FEEL THAT THIS IS NOT DUE TO ACID RAIN, IT'S DUE TO THE PAINT JOB IN THESE MODELS.
