The MOST CRAPTASTIC Windshields Ever: More 5th Gen Butthurt

between your issues you’ve posted about the paint — and now the glass too — do you begin to think that maybe this just isn’t the right vehicle for you?

Well this is a forum and its here to discuss and share experiences.

On a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the best

Glass: 2
Paint: 6

So here are few things I was thinking about with respect to my 2020 SR5 Premium. I’m actually pretty proud to own one of these. When I go to a of couple local Sportsman’s clubs I belong to it looks good parked next to all of the $50K pick ups, RR’s, X6’s, other poser SUV’s. I even think I like it better than a Land Cruiser a guys got.

Here are a few more 1-10’s I came up with for myself

Tires Not ‘splodn’: 10
Feeling of Safety and Confidence while Driving on Road: 10
Feeling of Safety and Confidence while Driving off Road: 10
Ease of Maintenance: 9
Drivers Side Interior Room: 10
Sunroof size and function: 10
Acceleration: 7
Load cargo in interior: 9
Seat Comfort: 9
Rear door function: 9
Side Mirror view: 9
Fuel economy: 7
Style: 7
Looks:9
Recognizability:9
Build quality Fit & finish:8
Steering: 8
Braking: 8
Door handles durability: 4
AC cool down:10
HVAC sound level: 5
HVAC adjustability: 9
Infotainment Sound Quality:7
Toyota infotainment software: 6
Radar Cruise Control function: 9
Back up camera view: 9

bend the crack

I have a Honda Element ... very flat glass... on my 4th windshield I have learn if you push near the end of the crack below it in your case you can sometimes get the crack to bend out of your line of sight. worth a try.
 
Last month I was on the way to get my first service at 5k.... rock chip and BAM. By the time I reached the dealer it had grown to 6". Good thing I went with a no deductible replacement with State Farm at the time I setup coverage.
 
Went mountain biking with my daughter, the car in front of us “missed” their exit and cut across kicking up all sorts of rocks. One of them hit at the very top of my windshield, I thought for sure it had actually hit the body as well as the windshield because it made such a loud noise. But to my luck that wasn’t the case. By the time we were done riding the crack had expanded all the way down the windshield. I feel your pain.

Look at this freak'n door handle. What kind of idiot would spec. paint, and shitty paint for that matter, on a freak'n door handle ?!!! This mess is from a box rubbing on it for a few miles of travel.

Are you sure someone hasn't taken a contract out on you?
That looks like someone goofed up trying to pop a cap in yo-az.
 
Okay, now you’ve gone too far.
I keep a few moving blankets in my truck.

I thought about buying some refrigerator door handle covers that have velcro.
Wouldn't that look great !
Maybe some white ones with cats on them or maybe some with carrots and celery.
