Got my first ding

Well it happened, I was driving around the other day and pow, a rock smacked my windshield and put a nasty crack in it, 14300 miles flawless and bam, I don't know I'm just frustrated and thought I'd share

Sorry bro, sucks.

Where you on the freeway? So it's a crack in the windshield and not a dent to the body right?

Yes it's small but right in my line of sight, I know it's covered, but I just can't believe it, dang it

don;t sweat it. I thought you got a REAL ding. windshield is easily replaced in 15 mins and you'll never know it was replaced.

If it was a real ding on the sheet metal, well that's another story.

I wish the rock that hit the A pillar on my car hit the windshield instead. Windshields can easily be fixed these days but it still sucks that it happened to ya.

ya have to get that first ding out of the way early on so you don't have to worry about it anymore.
