Has anyone found anything that works to chill out on the rocks thrown by the Raptor tires? It's startling going down the highway and hearing one rip off the side rails or wheel well. My kids call them "fireworks" every time because they're so loud.
I've got about 1600 miles in and the inevitable finally happened today- one flew right out and smashed my door at 65mph and gave me a nice gash, eating right through the ceramic coating and the paint. I'll be honest- I love this car but I don't think I'll be able to keep it at this rate. Spending 85k+ on a car that sounds like someone is throwing a bucket of rocks at it every time I get in it is way too stressful and sets the mood for every drive.
I don't expect to avoid all rock chips forever but this is pretty deep and high up for such low mileage if this is what I have to expect for the rest of my drives.
