Here is the deal:
Saturday morning, I wipe down the AV, all is well.
I close the tailgate, but do not lock it.
I leave the house, make one quick stop at in-laws house, then head down the interstate.
One hour, ~70 miles later, I arrive at my destination.
When I open the tailgate, I notice this hole, AND A SCRATCH on the top of the tailgate:
Looks like a bullet hole, but is not. There is also a scratch beside of it.
Vandalized? Doubtful, they would go for the paint.
I backed into something? Nope, the gate was closed.
Hole was created to break into gate? Nope, the gate was unlocked.
There is nothing rattling or rolling around in the gate. There is a 'flap' created where the hole is. The flap is not bent all the way back, so the projectile that created the hole fled the scene. It would not fit into the actual opening. I am not sure that you can see that in the pics.
WHAT HAPPENED?
I am not mistaken about the facts, nor am I lying.
Wuddaya think? Spaceship bolt?
Be creative.
