How many windshields (including replacements) have you gone through?

I hope I don’t jinx myself. Still with the factory one. Did take a rock in the first 8 days but had it fixed. Now at 27k and counting with nothing more.

About 6200 miles and still OK. Mostly highway driving.

I try to stay away from trucks (leave a lane between Bronco and truck), and don't tailgate. I figure you either got to be right on someones butt, or way back. I choose way back.

I will admit though... in my old Toyota pickup I've gotten rocks and I swear there isn't anybody around... literally.

Best defense though... is zero deductible comp insurance, and make sure that insurance covers OEM windshield install.

Still on factory at over 25k miles. However, I had ExoShield windshield protection applied within the first 1,000 miles. I've taken several rocks to the windshield along the interstate. Who knows if they would have broken the windshield without the protection film, but I'm glad to have the peace of mind.

so why are all these windows breaking? weak glass? something about the height of the car?

It's the way the window is angled. Same with Jeeps, we replaced 4 on ours.

If you do replace your windshields make sure you have someone reputable do it. We take ours to collision shop. They have experience on how to install them correctly so you don't get rust around your windshield and other variables. Of course make sure it is a OEM windshield, which I am sure everyone knows. We never use Safelite. Hard lesson learned from having Jeeps.

Still on original, but I have about 300.00 in crack repair . I run with a repair kit and the minute I get a chip, I pull over and spend 20 minutes fixing it.

strongly considering parking the Badlands in the living room once she comes and just staring at her all day. Seems like the best option to never have to worry about windshields, clutches, roofs, info system restarts, rattles, app upgrades, etc etc

Just put my 3rd windshield in week before last, 5 days later got my first chip...from my own vehicle in front of me I was following lmao got it filled the same day.

I have had 2 replaced, then i Installed THIS and its been 18 months and no chips way less bug splatter too..

Does it add any wind or whistling noises?

Nope!

 

[ctskier]

strongly considering having this put on before pickup

is that gloss? it looks matt

 

[ctskier]

Just ordered it. With the redeem624 coupon, it ate the tax and shipping. So it was at cost.

Almost 50K miles and still on my factory windshield. Y'all need to stop tailgating dump trucks LOL

I'm only at half that but still all original. I chalk it up to steering clear of anything likely to chuck rocks, but mostly because I paid extra for glass insurance so I'll probably never need it.

 

[Never-had-a-Ford]

Nope!

Thanks!
