    Ok I admit it, I passed this guy just as I passed gas in the truck and I almost blinded myself, I was swerving all over the place like a mad man and then almost choked to death from the smell. Sorry fella! :biggrin_25523:

    We don't have a dog and we checked that spot. Personally I think "that man" I team with put it someplace he shouldn't have. Just my thought on the subject.

    I thought I was loosing my night vision, then I replaced my windshield. Wow what a difference, #### sand pitting made the glare really bad.

    I have 513,000 on my windshield and I know it needs it, but I will be waiting until after the winter because of the potential to get rocks.

    It only cost me like $300 and it was money well spent. Mine only had 250,000 on it, but at night the glare was bad. If it was a rainy night on a two lane road it was downright scary.

    It was a real relief to know it wasn't my eyes.

    HAHAHA That's funny. I remember when I was a kid I was in a motel room with my dad and asked him why the phone had a red light on it and without a missed beat he replied it was for deaf people so they know the phone is ringing and you know for years I believed that :biggrin_25523:

    You have obviously never been around blind people. I have numerous blind relatives to include my grandmother, two aunt's, and four cousin's. My great grandfather and my grandmother's brother was as well. You will be amazed at how well they get around and do not try to cheat them out of money, I saw a man try it when I was a small boy, my grandmother caught it faster than I did. My grandfather had a series of strokes and lost his sight when I was 16. He was a mechanic and still would break down motors. Put them back together by feel with nothing left over. Blind people may not see as well as you and me, but their sense of smell, taste and hearing are better than yours will ever be.
