    I have been dumb or hard headed to do it 4X, 2 GM & 2 Yotas.

    Fortunately for me, no major issues other than the one I know well, but have been able to evade thus far....Windshields!!

    They're unavailable & crazy expensive the 1st year.

    No more though, sooner or later my luck is bound to run out, and I say that every time too though....
