The specific pattern Australian owners describe: peeling around the top of the windscreen and fading across the top of the cab. Both are horizontal, both take full Queensland sun all day, and both are above eye level on a vehicle this tall.
Owners have had clear coat claims declined on the grounds that deterioration from use and exposure to the elements is not covered. Whether or not you agree with that, it means protecting the roof is a decision worth making early rather than a problem to argue about later.
Australian owners report door decals fading badly around all four doors. Printed vinyl goes long before paint does, and once it has gone chalky it cannot be polished back - it has to be replaced.
Almost nobody checks the roof of a raised dual cab. By the time damage on the cab roof becomes visible from ground level it has usually been developing for a couple of years. It is worth getting a look up there before deciding what a vehicle needs.
