Default Got a new DD

finally. Damn car hunting really sucks. Bought a used car, Toyota 1999 Camry LE with V6 and loaded, it's got only 99K on it. It's in very good condition for being 11 years old, clean with only minor cosmetic issue. I do need a passenger headlight housing, where's a good place to find on for a decent price?

Do you have a garage for your truck though?

sure, personally i would not put a cover on anything besides my lawn mower or bbq grill. because if you put a cover on a vehicle and it is not absolutely clean, all the dust, dirt, etc will end up scratching the paint when the wind blows and shifts the cover slightly... that is just my opinion, but i know how **** you are about your truck...

IMO yes, just put on a good quality wax and you should be fine. My truck for the last 5 years has never been stored in the garage and my paint is fine except rock chips from driving
