Boy am I pissed. That's the 2nd time on I-80, in under 2 years.
Now I need to decide whether to get it fixed/replaced thru insurance - or just live with it. I think the last time I did that my rates went up.

Your rates probably did not go up due to that claim. A windshield repair claim would be considered a comprehensive claim. Comprehensive claims normally will not make your rates go up. Collison claims are what raises rates if it was your fault in a accident.

No accidents, no tickets, just that windshield claim in 2002.
Thanks Art. Good, then I'm going to get it replaced. (Maybe rates went up across the board for all wrx's. I think I heard that about a year ago.)

Every 6 months my rates seem to go up about $3/mo.

WRX's are steadily going up. With the amount of At-Fault accidents, overall age of WRX owners, speeding tickets, theft ratings, etc etc.....there rating has gone up quite a bit.

Unfortunatly. :(
BOO

Debbie, you should hold off with replacing/repairing the windshield till the spring since there's just going to be more sand on it between now and then, unless you have a saftey issue with the current one.

Fast Glass and the like can install a new windshield for under $200 the last time I checked. I'll probably be getting one this spring, as my current windshield eats new wipers up in about a week.

Good idea, thanks Scott.

I took a HUGE rock off the front of my hood today, the weird thing was, the clearbra sent it over the top of the car, very good rebound rate on that stuff. :lol:

If I ever get a paint job I'll have to get a clearbra. I could use a rebound rate myself! :lol: :lol:

You should slow down while driving in reverse, man. That's not safe.
