windshield installed.
-12F in lagrange maine for my cold start.. I checked safelite website, they allowed a delay to 2 pm.
bangor maine was going to be 13F by then.
the repair guy scrubbed 2 small rust spots under the 18 year old glass, gave it 2 coats of primer.. and complimented the condition.
We got to talking, he is also looking for a gmt400.. less gadgets, and the first years of real injection.
I was proud to bring this one in to their shop.
not trusting the time allowance for glass to seat, now at 8F this evening already.. I let it sit and idle hot defrost to allow more seat time.
ice and rain storm tomorrow...again.
I also got free full trim, the glass edge and the side pieces at the door.
$185.
all that stuff was 18 years old.
This means 250-300k miles.
impressive.
You don't know how bad the old glass is , until you look through some brand new sometimes.
analogy to evolution..
anyway.
the new ground followup..
cold starts back to the reason I love this truck, it is on its way.
Now just pretending it will get through another ice storm with no problems... I am sure it will. The safelite guys seemed confident, and told me of the warranty.
