Is MB more susceptible to hail damage?
I drive a 2013 MB GLK 350 4MATIC in Colorado. Over the past month we've had two decent hail storms at my office. My car sustained lots of damage but all of the other cars in the same parking lot were fine. I've lived in CO for over 10 years and have been in multiple hail storms in other vehicles and have never sustained any damage. Seems odd to me. What do you think?

But to answer your question, yes. The hood and trunks on many MB vehicles are made from weight saving aluminum which is signifigantly easier to dent than steel. A good PDR specialist can remedy the problem easily but be prepared to spend a few $$$
