Colorado B.S. Thread

I don't know what everyone is doing to need a new windshield. I've lived in CO since 1996 (Nebraska before) and have owned numerous vehicles and have never had to replace a windshield. It seems that people are getting it done all the time. Am I just the luckiest driver in this state?

 

You must be, or you don't drive on the highways, mountains or ski towns enough. I have chips in mine but I don't care too much about them.

 

See that's just not how I am I guess.

Like I don't understand why people spend a bunch of money on something and then when something very minor is wrong with it, they just don't fix it.

 

That's probably it. I drive the highways pretty regularly but I don't drive the mountain roads a ton. Not to ski towns anyway. More of the foothills and slower roads with less traffic I guess. I do drive on the highway a fair bit and usually am tailgating and driving like an asshole so that's not it either.

 

Luckily the giant crack on my windshield is low and on the passenger side lol. So I just live with it.

 

I find that when tailgating the rocks don't hit the windshield.

 

Yeah and still mine don't break. Dunno.

 

I had a type o. I find that they don't hit while tailgating that why you are good. I normally get my chips in summit county or on a county road.

 

Tailgaters.
I'm not saying anything, I'm just saying....

 

If that was the case I would care a lot less

 

Haha OCD

You took the grill off to do that? Looks cool

 

The tabs that hold the emblem on are a PITA and it would be easier to remove the emblem on a work bench or tail gate or something like that.

 

Emblem looks bad ass but the chrome surround needs to go.

 

One thing I did notice when I moved here is that the streets are more corse. In SoCal all the street, well most of the streets out there are a lot smoother. And any truck, jeep, large car most have mud flaps by law. I don't know of it's the same here. Plus the extreme change in weather here doesn't help. So all plays a factor in our windshields. In SoCal I never had windshield problems.
