Bed Sides Rock Chip prevention

What was Toyota thinking with putting an 18 gallon tank in the 4th gen Tacoma?? My wife's EV has more range than the Tacoma does on a full tank as I can't get more than 280 miles on a tank. I do mostly city driving with some highway but still even the 4Runner I had before would go nearly 340 miles on a tank. I wish I had known this about the Tacoma before I leased it. I may be reconsidering the option to purchase this once the lease is up and may go to a used 3rd gen Tacoma or a Colorado new or used.

Hey guys,

I was wondering if anyone has found a good solution to preventing rocks chipping the paint on the front of the fender bulges on the bed.
The new body lines are awesome! Just have noticed chipping on the front.
The chipping so far is pretty minor and can’t really tell in the picture because my truck is dirty. But this is the region I’m referring to.
