I noticed this too. I washed my truck this weekend and brushed over a spot with a clay bar and I noticed it scratched my truck, and it's white! And no, the bar wasn't dirty, brand new. My last truck was a charcoal silverado and I clay bared it several times and never saw it scratch like that (even tho that pos had several other issues).

I have the usual chipping from rocks and such, too, but that's expected. I bought a thing of VIN-matched touch-up paint from the dealership last week and am gonna see how that goes. Never really bothered with my other vehicles, but I wanna try to keep my white lookin good as long as I can, not to mention try to keep that rust off...
