Need to rant to my fellow 86ers.

I wish I could illustrate how impossible that would be.

I bought my frs after 6 years in the AF....drove sub 5k cars while i was in....so my answer to you is yes join the AF and yes find a new recruiter, and also dont volunteer for anything in basic training and just blend in...lol

Well, Mandy, welcome to the world of "women". After all, it is your mother's garage and her "stuff".

I have found, over the past 70 years, that a women's stuff is all part of her "nest" .... and NOT to be messed with by a man. About all you can do is to keep your own "stuff" straight and hope she follows your example.

Yep, like I mentioned, get a car cover .....

A couple thoughts concerning this. First, landscapers have a legal responsibility to do their job without damaging other people's property. Second who ever hired these people, landlord, management company etc, also have a legal responsibility for anybody they contracted to do work, not to damage their tenants property. I would contact the management of the landscape company and politely tell them about the damage to your car. And it is damage, even if it can be corrected with a cleaning and a detail, it's damage.
Second contact your management company, landlord, whoever, let them know about the issue. They don't want people suffering damage because they are libel as well, and their own cars are probably parked in the area most of the day as well. Third I would consider 3M's paint protection film. Get it applied to your doors and fenders if you have to park in that area.

Seriously you don't have to put up with this crap. Good luck Brah!

I agree with the two or three people in here that said get a car cover, it will help. I live in Military housing in SC and they pay to do the landscaping for us, and in my yard there is a garden area which is all wood chips and they carelessly run over it and shoot wood chips at my car. The leaf blower thing happens too, but as annoying as it is to put a car cover on, it saves immense amounts of time and effort cleaning not to mention the possible damage that could occur from rocks and stuff.
