Anyone notice the 08 QX paint scratches easily?

Bad luck maybe? A lot of road debris? I haven't noticed the problem with my '04 QX56 or my new Armada. Just the regular scratches as time goes on underneath the door handle. Maybe it is jealous people in parking lots doing the damage.

08 Armada here....easily the most scratched vehicle I've ever owned and it is garage kept with no children in the house. A body shop owner went to an area unnoticeable and scratched it ever so gently...it went down to the metal....he tried the same on an 05 GMC truck he had in his shop, just about the same color, and you couldn't even notice where he tried to scratch it. He told me it has way too little paint on it and that I should call the customer service rep and have him meet me at the dealership where I purchased it (along with two scratches already there when I picked it up...they gave me touch up paint for it) and show him, in person. If nothing will be done he said contact a lemon law attorney.

I tried to avoid driving behind trucks, but even when I didn't a baseball size rock decided to creep right in front of me...I just took the hit... Now I got a thumbs size dent and few scratches...Luckily... missed my headlights bout an 1".....Yo...Wear and tear..if all fails...Ghost Ride the Whipp....
