I have a guess as to you have so many cars and it is not a daily so the cost out weighs the benefits?
In part- my roads are amazing and yes I have alot of cars so I dont drive any one car too much. Money is not really the issue of course but I just didnt do it... I have done full PPf's on my Ferrari's, Bentley, R8, Porsche's, Benzes, etc but not the last 3 M's.

Based on my last 15 to 20 years of ownership having had multiple rides - I have not had tremendous chip issues at all. Do I have a few on my M8, hell ya but I have a smooth hand, sharp brush, and can mix paint well

My PB G80 with 1400 miles when I sold it, didnt have one chip- not one. Its all just a crap shoot for me and these last few cars have not got the love. If I was in almost any other state or where weather and elements were key; PPF goes on asap.
