Details...
Well, its probably my fault, but the 4Runner is a little large for our garage, which is not too much of a problem until we open the liftgate. A couple of times early on we opened it and rested the edge of it against the top of the garage door. Even though we did this VERY gently, it still came away with a sizable paint chip both times. It has not been a problem since we took some wooly material and wrapped it underneath the garage door edge.
My wife had another minor mishap that chipped the paint. I'll have to ask her exactly what happened.
My experience has always been that we pick up small dings, but have never had much of an issue with the paint chipping (with any vehicle).
I do have one small paint chip (about the same size as the ones on the 4Runner) on my Mazda MP3, but thats kind of understandable since I was hit-n-run, side-swiped by a Ford Exploder (I was saved by my large alloy wheels which evidently cut pretty deep into his tire/tread).
What's everybody's recommendation on touch-up paint?
