Broken windshield

We have had more than our fair share of vandalism and such where we currently live. In the past three months weve gone through three cars and Ive removed the wheels on my car because people kept stealing the valve caps (among other reasons).

Saturday night was sort of the 'icing on the cake' so to speak when we all piled into the yaris and noticed the windshield had been caved in.

Pardon my french but some fuck-head decided out of spite to just smash my windshield. Theres a ton of pricks in the neighborhood, punks, drugaddicts etc weve come to realise. This is the main reason all of my projects and progress on the yaris and truck have been on hold. Were going broke fixing or replacing vehicles so were moving.

To make a long story short we didnt have glass coverage on our insurance so I really expected to be paying a shit load of cash to replace it. (The last windshield I replaced cost $700 for glass alone)

I was surprised when I was quoted $280 installed. The company came to the house and replaced it and including taxes I spent a total of $320.

$20 more than what my deductible would have been and they came to my house to do it.

as a side note, anyone thinking of moving to kelowna - dont. between crime, cost of living and the shitty pay it sucks.
