1 week into my new Platinum, and I love tapped the back end with my Kubota skid-steer. I was loading a water tank and pallet into the bed. My pallet fork has a foot-step on the right corner (but nothing on the left) and I forgot about it.

Given that the skid-steer is 8000 pounds empty, this could have been much much worse.

Sucks man. I feel for you. I had a shopping cart dent after about 2 weeks of ownership.

Honestly I’d take that L and be happy it wasn’t worse. Could have ripped that whole side up bad with a skid steer.

3 days after purchasing a new 79 Chev C10, someone had keyed the entire passenger side (I was not the only one).
Did not get another scratch for ten years.

So, now you don’t have to worry about it anymore.

Exactly. Murphy's law says that if it's going to get scratched/dented/etc it's going to happen during the first few days of ownership, of course.
