    I like the guys who order the 2pc windshield because "it's cheaper to fix". Replacement one piece curved windshield for my '06 W9 was under $60.00, 2pc was more.:biggrin_2559:

    You can (or could) even get a 379 with a one piece windshield. Really weird looking but it was an option.

    the more I look into this rear axle rating, the less odd it is to see a 36k rear. Makes sense, if your hauling 80 or under I suppose

    Good tip on the window. The thing I don't like about the 2 piece is the wipers stand up in the middle

    Yes and the tops of the wipers freeze and are worthless. Too far from the defroster and the washer won't spray that high.:biggrin_25523: Design probably looked really good on paper.
