sometimes it has to be weakened
Geico covers hail damage if it is part of your policy. Bare minimum coverage does not cover acts of nature.
If I wanted to damage a brick, I would lie it on concrete and smash it numerous times over with a hammer.
One can avoid hail damage to one's car by parking it in a garage. Hail stones are usually small but can be as large as a golf ball or even larger. In areas prone to large hail stones, roofs are usually covered with materials that do not shatter, which avoids a lot of expensive damage.
Hail Storms can bring a ton of damage to homes, and especially those vulnerable rooftop air conditioning units. In Dallas, I have seen softball size hail that will damage air conditioners badly. If the hail hits in the right spot right on the vulnerable fan vents, it can break through and damage the fans and any other internal components. So it really depends on the size and severity of the storm to determine how much damage the hail can really do. Also something to keep in mind if you notice hail damage to your AC unit is that your roof may also have sustained damage during the onslaught. I would have both inspected especially if there is visible damage.
No.
Your car will depreciate depending on the size of the dents. A few dents will be different from a hundred dents. Carfax has a category for hail damage.
yes, but insurance normally will just say it is totaled and write you a check for the value of a car. its cheaper

No. Hail damage to a car is covered by the comprehensive (sometimes called "other than collision" or "comp") portion of your auto insurrance policy.
