That's what I've heard, that's why I'll check both.

Only problem is keyboard has a few dead keys.

I was floored when the service adviser handed me the sheet with the quote on it. I actually wanted to say "how badly do you not want my business?". Much happier with what Subaru quoted (and what I ended up paying), I figure that since I can actually see the Subi dealer from my balcony, I may as well give them all of my future business. Which, is mostly just parts. Though, not having a garage is kind of a pain in the ass and it means I'll likely have to end up paying shops for things I'd normally do myself. Either that, or make the hour and fifteen minute drive to my parent's place whenever I have work to do.

That's not sad that's awesome! It makes a difference, too. My butt dyno tells me that the car is feeling extra peppy w/o that 15 extra lbs. Feels awesome.

Can you blame them? It probably sounds fucking awesome.

Aaaaaaaaargh!

Was just about to get off the freeway today when a pickup truck ahead of me throws a rock and busts my windshield. Crap.

Pull up next to the guy at the stop light on the offramp and told him he just broke my windshield - and the guy gets mad! Yells that he isn't carrying any rock and he didn't do it. I tell him I have it all on dashcam and I don't want anything from him - just letting him know what his lifted truck with massive wheels and no mudflaps did.

Happy F'in New Year!

I kind of can't wait for my windshield to need to be replaced for that exact reason.

A few weeks ago I got my first rock chip. Was able to mostly repair it; the spot is still visible, almost like a dried water spot, but is pretty much fixed. Maybe try a kit?

I've had so many windshields replaced over the years I don't even try to keep count.
Just make sure I have glass insurance with no deductibles and hope it doesn't get worse than the inevitable small rocks and pebbles.
