If your automobile policy includes one windshield replacement per year, and you haven't used it, I could claim it, especially if it doesn't have a deductible.

Good luck,

With my luck thats the couple of hours that it would always happen in. I'm just getting my FD and I have to say I am so afraid of anything happening to it.

***-ol-s and sorry to hear that.

Holy CRAP!

Since I pushed my car outta my garage a few years ago... I have noticed that my mats and my external radio antenna has been stolen... but, once I start refurbing my 3rd gen, if someone trys to steal, they will be arrested, or sadly, probably dead.

Thank God for Texas Law.

Unless you (or another person) is in your car when someone tries to steal your car, or holds a gun/knife to you, you're 99.999% NOT going to be justified in using deadly force.

That royally sucks. We get a lot of that around my town here. Kids going around shooting windows out of cars, makes my blood boil. I'm glad I have a garage to park mine in. Of course, if this damn winter would ever end it could at least come out of the garage. Got more snow today after having 70 degrees on Sunday. Mother nature have a cob up her *** this year or what?

I agree...try that option first...just over a year ago I got my original windshield replaced and the insurance company covered it..it's a law I think...in Florida at least, but don't quote me on that.

But I had to get it replaced after a pebble (believe it or not!) was kicked up from a semi that had to be 70 yards ahead of me(!)....both of us traveling about 60mph......with the semi two complete lanes over from me(!)....in a typical Florida rain downpour! I've had rocks and things hit my windshields all my life, but wouldn't you know it...while I'm driving my FD..the longer I drive....I notice a smal vertical crack within the glass.....getting larger and larger. It eventuaqlly made a turn and headed over towards the passenger side.

But like I said, the insurance company paid for it.


start movin' up the windshield....

WEIRD. My old FD got a flat on John Young Pkwy in Orlando, right by the Osceola county line (the Loop) and some ******** ripped off my mirror, broke the windshield and windows with it. Then they ripped out my guage pod, radar, and stereo. After that they set fire to the paperwork in my glovebox. I hate Orlando nowadays...
