Just had my windshield replaced. $300. Nice guy, did a good job. 30 years experience. Scamdemic crowd would have loved him. Close to the first words out of his mouth were (in response to a sign in my neighbors yard) "Black lives matter? How about all lives matter.". Over the next hour, proceeded to comment about Biden, gas prices, taxes, the pandemic... all the Scamdemic hot topics. Just kind of agreed since I wasn't going to argue with him, but even with that, was still a nice, friendly guy.
Watched him the entire time, he said he didn't mind and likes talking to people anyway. Paid care to things like the sensors and whatnot. The only "complaint" I have, is the glass looks to be pretty crap quality. The cut along the top edge is super rough. It's one of those things I'll completely forget about and won't even think about it after a few days, but you can tell it's bad just by looking at it.

Like, I thought it was the sealant oozing out until I tried cleaning it with a q-tip. It's just a very rough cut of glass. When we were talking during the install, he even commented how cheap (cost wise) the actual glass is, and how crazy it is places like Safelite charge $400+. Said out of the $300 I paid, $175 - $200 goes in his pocket after taking away the cost of taxes, material, and overhead.
