Oh yeah. My university department kept a bra on its 4WD Mitsubishi
Delica van... until one day I looked under it and saw the rotting
leaves & pine needles stuck right in there and told someone about
it... the bra disappeared and stayed gone. Best avoided... stonechips
are far preferable to blistering paint or rust, or redwood trees
growing out of the humus built-up under the bra.
