pissed the f off

So let me tell you how i was helpin a friend of my wife move a 4 wheeler that she signed for so another guy could have one, well needless to say that her relationship with the guy went south so i had to go get it and the damn thing went through my rear windsheild while loading so now i have no rear windshield and its gonna cost 756.96 to get the windshield then labor the good news is that she is gonna pay for the whole thing to get fixed but now i am worried mad that my rear window is gonna leak anyone have expirence with this type of stuff??

 

Sounds like you could use a cool bevridge and chill man. Not to make lite of what happened but I think any reputable GLASS repair shop will fix it right and come with a guarantee. I have not had a rear replaced, but a few fronts w/no problems.

 

Crap happens. Look at the brighter side though. If (inevitable) you have a fight with your wife and you are locked out, you have an alternate place to lay your hat . Lucky Dog is what we'd call you .

Let it leak, let it leak, let it leak .

 

It sucks but there are more important things in life to get pissed off about. Just call a reputable shop and I'm sure they'll take care of you. Too bad you aren't in SC because that would be free.

 

I'd have to agree with the other folks here on the board. That price of $756.96 sounds like a dealer price. Any good glass shop should be able to do the job for a whole lot less. You didn't mention one thing though,,,,, your rear window, is it a sliding unit or 1 peice ?

Also as mentioned, there are much more important things to get your blood pressure up about in life. I know what it's like to be anal about your vehicle but remember, it is what it is. Things happen & most of those happenings can be fixed. Maybe one day you'll be able to laugh about it all.

 

Most rear windows are nothing more than a piece of glass and a rubber seal, I have put in a few with only using a rope and a extra set of hands.

 

Not on a Taco, but a Ford (company trk) I had all the glass busted out, I mean all of it (bad neighborhood) it all got repaired. All of it leaked, nothing was right, no more car washes, feared rain, seats were always wet, finally I just burned the truck to the ground.

 

A few people on TN had their back windows busted out and replaced. No one's complained about leaking.

This is your chance to get a different window maybe! If you had a slider and wanted a 1 piece, or vice versa!

 

Thanx guys yeah the price listed was a dealer price, i am tryin to save her the money but i just took it to the dealership i wish i would have cheked here first that power slider option might have been a good idea if im replacing the window i might as well get something out of it right?? i am so pissed bc i am supposed to be checking into a new duty station on mon and i dont have the time to run around trying to get my truck fixed so now i am stuck driving my wifes ford focus until i can get the truck fixed!!!! but again thanks for the comment it helped me to put everything back into perspective!!!

 

its actualy a big gasket and urethane..Not rocket science..any good glass shop can do it...Also in NYS most peoplw have full glass under comprehensive and most companies alow 1 glass claim without a sucharge...So you could put it through insurance and she could bake you pies for the rest of your life every sunday until the debt is paid. at say 10 dollars a pie, you would not have to worry about desert for a little over 2 years..Shit, Id bust all my windows for that! course, I like pie.

 

I am in the Marine Corps and I report into Drill Instructor school on Jan 7th, in Parris Island SC.

 

Kind of makes the rear window seem pretty insignificant, doesn't it? Did you go through basic at PI?

 

Dude, go get some weed and smoke it!! That's the most sound advice you will hear.

 

Brings to mind a song.....

smoke two joint in the morning, I smoke two joints at night...

 

now would be a great time to have an electric 1 piece glass installed.It would be a great replacement for that slide glass.I'm sure some custom shop could help you out. $$$$ though
