 That is strange, any food there? It's not nesting season. Crows can be attracted by shiny stuff.

 

  Some may mention the 20 gauge, not appropriate in many locations, or the pellet gun. 'Poisoned corn' may be a little extreme too. Blackbirds & crows are rather fickle, here today, gone tomorrow. They do flock up this time of year.

 

  If extreme you could cover or put a 'cherry net' over the truck.

OP.. ..not laughing , but i am, because it reminded me of a buddy of mine... Brand new dodge... just got it.. we bass fish, so took a trip to Fayette.  Buzzards are notorious there for eating up trucks at the boat ramp.. seen a few that morning.. reminded him about it.. went and fished.. .came back.. .wipers gone, and the trip around the door tore up!... i haven't laughed so hard!.. 

 

but sorry its happening to you!.. .sucks.. . stick an owl decoy on the top of the truck at night.. should keep the birds away.

This is the first time hearing of this problem for me!  I have lots of crows in my area and they leave a mess but don't peck at my truck.  I would check with a pest control agent and see if there isn't a non-toxic spray or rub-on compound that you can use.

Look around before you buy, you can purchase two of these products from Home Depot and buy a couple of burgers and fries on the way home compared to the cost from your previous link.
