I think alot of the problem is the quality of paint and the color that was used as well as care of the paint is a factor, I understand that you may properly take care of your vehicle by waxing it and everything else but id it was a used car what did the previous owner do or didn't do, I have deep swirls and a dulled finish on my '95 because someone waxed the truck and majorly over buffed it and scorched the paint prior to me owing it. But I don't know the paint quality GM uses or the quality of the Batch that amy of been used on your truck, etc etc.

No need for a kitchen, you can cook on the engine block. No need for a bathroom, that's what the yard is for. No need for a bedroom, that's what the cars seats are for.

plus a little crap around the vehicles-like 3 ton jack, (4) 6 ton stands, (4) 3 ton stands, (2) spares for the car trailer, (1) extra spare for the 'Burb, 10" compound saw, 14" chop saw, 2' high wood sides for the car trailer, chains & bear traps for trailer, way too many S10 side glass (doors, etc.), complete glass for my 'Burb-HOLY S**T! i have alot of "crap" in my garage-and i haven't even listed it all! i have 3 storage cupboards on the wall, and a 8x20 shelf @ the front of it as well (pretty much full).
as for your description of interior decorating, you don't need any seats for a bed, i fell asleep on my creeper, under my truck one night (i used to live in a 1900 sq. ft. shop before the wife finished University), and was woken up the next morning by my brother kicking my feet-and my dog was sleeping beside my legs. so, only "wanna be's" need car seats to sleep in, hahahahahaha!

was just on the hood on mine before, has now spread over to the panels and on the roof a slight bit. It is not in the paint its actually in the primer, so just doing a re-paint wont fix it, you have to sand it right down to take care of the lines

On topic however, my old hood and roof has this problem too! Looks like tiny little white spider webs on my black paint. Not too concerned about the roof however.
