Rear Slider
« on: August 18, 2011, 08:19:14 am »
Well,
I returned to my truck from fishing only to find that someone smashed in the right side of my rear slider. (right where my "Don't Tread On Me" sticker was.   :o      Anywho....whats the deal with having to buy the whole stinkin thing?  I got quoted for $280 installed.  Not an auto or tinted or nothing!  The more I think about the situation, the more I get ticked.

Thanks.  That is probably what I'll do.  Everything on the slider is mint except for that one panel.  I'll even bet that it wasn't replaced that long ago. :-\

Yeah that would be nice.  My fantasies go a little deeper than that.  Inapropriate for this site. ;D

The thing that burns me is that I know it was political.  The windows were down, the key was in it with a mid grade cd player right there.  NOTHING was touched except the rear slider where the sticker was.  Oh well.  Thats the last I'll talk about it. :)

     How can a "don't tread on me" be political ?  I just don't understand some people's thinking.
#1: The easiest and most obvious solution to any problem is 99% of the time correct.
#2: There is no such thing as impossible, it just takes longer.
