News reports indicate Mark Mitsubishi in Glendale, AZ was pummeled in a recent hail storm. For a link to the full report - click here (http://www.kpho.com/valleynews/25303125/detail.html)

I've spent a fair amount of time in Arizona and didn't know they experienced severe hail storms - I always thought that was more of a Mid-West occurrence. Glendale's a suburb of Phoenix, it's not like it's in the mountains or in an area that's subject to severe weather.

The news report has a link to a slideshow with pictures of the damage - some of the cars look pretty bad. The GM told the reporter that he stopped counting when one vehicle had more than 200 dents. :(

I sent the dealership an E-mail suggesting they do a Google Search for "Dealership Forum Hail Damage" so they can read a great thread that shares the experiences some of our members have had when they had to resolve a similar mess.

A good friend, and daily breakfast buddy, is a cat. insurance adjuster, and left for Phoenix this morning.

I just received an e-mail from Bill Luke CJD announcing their "Hail Sale" as a result of a storm that moved through Phoenix on 10/05.

Based on your post and the e-mail I received from Bill Luke I'm getting the impression the storm damage in the Phoenix area must be pretty extensive.
