The windshield repair shops thrive on winters...they get TONS of business from unexpected chips. Remember, just because the roads are dry and snow free, doesn't mean the road is clean. If the street cleaners haven't come through yet, expect rocks/salt to be flung up on the car....a big enough rock at 80+ will ruin the day.
JP....luckily I have a couple of expendable Ford Expeditions for the winter. So far the weather here in CoS has been amazing. I am getting a lot of time in the M3 this season! Funny thing is that I see no less than 2 M3's a day when I am driving my hooptie and 0 when I am out in the M, lol!
