The ties that bind...

[Heath]

Well folks... It happened to me... The dredded backglass... ARGH... I was taking Tara (my hottie wife) to the mall to get some new clothes (cherry creek mall for the coloradons), I go to pull into the covered parking lot and I see that the clearance was 6'10"... We'll I'm thinking hey the one at work is 6'7" so no problem!!! I jump on the gas to go up the hill... I hear this THUNK, CLANG and PCHHHeeeewrerer... There goes the back glass on my explorer... Well with my stupidity I forgot to take off my CB antenna!!! DOH!!! DOH!!! DOH!!! and it echoed through the parking garage.... Well I hit it hard enough for the whip to come back with enough force that when the tip hit the glass it shattered into a million pieces...

Well Tara freakes out because she heard people talking at CCR about how expensive they are... I told her it would only be $100 TGFI!!! Thank Goodness For Insurance!!! Well I took some pics...

It looks like the sticker that shows our bond as an internet/explorer community also was the only thing that held ANY of my window together!!!

Here is a link to the rest of the photos!!!

Hey Rick... Think you can hook me up with another one of those big stickers??? PLEASE... I'll buy it if I need to... But I need another one... This one was only 6 days old... Not even a week before its short life had to come to an end

Bummer, gotta love insurance. At first I was like 6'10 dang his might be taller than mine and that didnt make sense, but the antenna. Gotta love insurance.
BTW Great pics from ccr2001

 

[Rick]

SOLUTION SO THIS WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN
Take about 200 of those stickers and plaster your windows with them, inside and out.

SOLUTION SO THIS WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN - PART II Don't drive your truck ever again! I mean, for gosh sakes Heath, I couldn't have done that if I TRIED!!!

 

[Heath]

Its not my fault that your whimpy ass V-6 can't get up enough speed to knock your antenna down going under that thing... Don't whine to me that you didn't get something with some gumption...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, what a great story....sorry to find humor in this, but damn that's funny. THat picture is great, just the sticker with glass........excellent! All I have to say is, one in a million....

Rick, this is an excellent front page photo! Not sure if it will increase sticker sales though....

Before you get the glass fixed, sell that CB and buy a hand held.

LOL

that really sucks. how long will it take to replace it?
i like matt adams' suggestion. for more "safety glass" do all of your windows

 

[Brian1]

Sorry to hear about your glass heath. I agree that is a worthy front page pic or ad for the stickers!

 

[TwoToneX]

Man Heath, that sucks. I'm sorry to see/hear that.

Although, it would make a great ad for the stickers...only makes me want one more now

How about herculining the windows as an option

I want a big sticker too...can I pay for one??

 

[Heath]

Actually I've already got a new window and I'm just waiting on the replacement sticker now... As well as the windshield banner one that I ordered for the front... You know just in case I break that one too...

 

[Heath]

Hey Rick any word on when you'll ship those stickers???

 

[TarHeel085]

I tell ya what though that will teach a valuble lesson to everyone, what size of sticker is that large or small?

 

[Heath]

It was a large one...
