I am from Lubbock. A guy I worked with had his car repainted. A while later he took his GF to a drive in movie and a 70 MPH sand storm blew through and removed the new paint job from his car.
 
Nasty stuff. Reminds me of when we stayed near the sand dunes in CA. I recall one time a pay phone plugged so tight you couldn't even get a quarter in the slot because of the sand.

Looks cool. But I'm sure its not.

If they are anything like the ones in Arizona, they are often more 'cool' than 'damaging.' The car wash joint love them.
 
In West Texas we used to joke that today you own your land, the next day your neighbor owns it.
