I have never seen any one person who believed that there is a spot on the exterior of a car that could not be hit by road trash. Wind, sand, water, and the rate of speed in which you travel have such a impact on paint. How can you blame a car company for things that are beyond their control.
I wouldnt blame ford for causing those problems but i would blame them for not anticipating them.
Its obvious to any idiot that the car is gonna get hit with road sh!t, the least a respectable car company could do was renforce the car materials to stand up to it.
See if this explains it better: What if you got a new roof for your house. Then a year later it starts to leak. you call the roofers up and say "hey, this b!tch is leakin, fix ur crappy roof" and they respond "we built a good roof, how can you blame us for the rain & snow"....
