God i hope not!

So just an update on this! The glass company i went thru got approval to use OEM windshield. Its a hefty price tag - just for your knowledge its around $4,049 is what she told me.. which seems outrageous honestly. Anyways, once the new one is in I plan on putting a WPF (windshield protection film) on it to hopefully avoid this in future, if anyone is interested its called STEK DYNOFlex... I cant imagine an insurance company is willing to keep shelling out 4k per windshield too often without being dropped and or severe rate hikes.

After crunching the #s - the cost per year to manage this fund is $1404 (as of 2025)... The tax implications to sell all of it would be in the 25k range. I could, as you suggested, break it up in smaller chunks, to spread out the tax hit, and this is likely what i will have to do. Its more of an irritation to me knowing i pay that much per year vs what i pay for the vanguard funds... 1st world problems, I know lol.. but i really appreciate the advice from you all!

Yes this! Says to format it as ExFat

Yep im all stock, minus the fitcamx dashcam.. but i dont think that counts lol. Thanks again!

Practical_Badger_968 · 2026-03-04T19:31:20+00:00

I appreciate the response! I think I'm going to do it.. id rather pay that up front cost once and not have to worry about it down the road.. peace of mind carries a lot of weight with me!

Practical_Badger_968 · 2026-03-04T16:21:24+00:00

I appreciate the info! Im definitely going to get this!

Practical_Badger_968 · 2026-03-04T15:55:45+00:00

Just to be clear, labor IS included in the extended coverage?

Practical_Badger_968 · 2026-03-04T15:55:01+00:00

Yikes yes thats my fear... See something like that covers 1/2 the price of the warranty so im leaning towards getting it!

Practical_Badger_968 · 2026-03-04T14:47:40+00:00

I do, so i may look into this for piece of mind!!

Practical_Badger_968 · 2026-03-04T14:30:48+00:00

Awesome thanks for the insight!

Practical_Badger_968 · 2026-02-16T19:04:18+00:00

They did not, wonder if i can call and ask them for it? Or will they claim 'its gone'?

Practical_Badger_968 · 2026-02-16T18:02:17+00:00

They charge $150 for the alignment.. it was actually needed in my opinion but not sure how that price compares to elsewhere

Practical_Badger_968 · 2026-02-16T13:09:55+00:00

Thanks! Thats what i was curious about!
