Banged fenders are a result of poor driving. Plain and simple. If you can't drive a bigger truck, get a single.

It's not quite that simple...dually fenders take a beating from road debris like small rocks, sand, dirt, etc....

Dually fenders are VERY susceptible to door dings in parking lots. I don't care if you park in the back-40 you will come out of the store and sure as the world someone will have parked their car within 2 inches of your Dually fender....at least that was my experience.

My Dually never had a problem at drive thru's and banks. Parking garages were another story entirely.

Thanks!

Interesting.

My dually fenders have no damage from road debris in 10 years.

Close parking now and then sure, but letting the air out of the offenders tires helps. (Just kidding)

I had a guy try letting the air out of the tires on my dually once in a parking lot because he got mad because I was parked so close to his truck. I was in the restaurant placing a togo order when my wife called me (she was in the truck) and said there was a guy letting the air out of my tires. I ran out and caught him keeled down letting the air out of my outside rear tire. When he saw me he got up and asked me why I had to park so close to his truck and got in and took off. All I could do was laugh. I mean I could have been a real *ss and backed into the spot and blocked his door. It was a small stip mall and I had no other parking spot available. There was people waiting to park in the street.:S

......guess he didn't think about when he let the air out of the two outer tires you STILL had to inner tires to take you to get more air:B

I guess he also didn't notice the big air compressor mounted right above him on the truck bed. Lol
