Well the sheet metal is probably not the thickest compared to bigger cars, this does reduce weight, but you gotta be a little more careful

So, was it a major-ass dent or a major ass-dent?

You just gotta pick the right place to lean on.

Lightly lean on it a bit?
3 dents from you already lightly leaning on it??
So, what your saying is you lightly lean on the side of your car and it pretty much caves in....thus a dent from your body (weight)???
Do you think you would have learned from the first one (dent) seeing it pushed in so easily? Ehh, screw it, I'll lean (again, lightly) on it again.....oop's another dent! Maybe if I do it again it wont dent. Hmmm, let me try it again....."oop's, I did it again".
Go lean on someone elses car next time........but don't tell them what happened to your .
All the above are just my suggestion/s or opinion/s.

Ok, fair enough statement. Hasn't happened to mine.....yet, so I guess I don't realize how soft the metal is. I know if I do once I sure as hell won't do it again!
