I am not expecting any help from the dealer unfortunately. I will ask them their opinion on fixing the paint. Probably touch up. I don't think the paint chip was from the trail. More likely highway. Were I live there is a ton of dust and rocks and broken windshields are common.

Was is Colorado a short time back. Was in the rental car for maybe 5 minutes. Semi passed by in the opposite direction, kicked up a rock and cracked the windshield

What trail were you on?

I did a trail called Rabbit Valley in Colorado. Most of the trail is wide. But there is a cool lunch spot with great views. This is where I got into trouble. The 4runner is pretty wide in spots.

For that reason I got my 25 TRD ORP PPF’d days after I received it. I got everything done but the back lift gate and roof.
