Oh this tops everything off - I bought this from a VW dealership this past Spring. It had 68k miles and was in immaculate condition; was a trade in. I kept hearing this wind noise. Salesman insisted it was the antenna. Sure as shit, I could feel wind blowing up. I used that as a negotiation tool as there is no way this would pass Maryland inspection. Regardless, I would get moisture blown up the inside when driving through a storm. The defogger was good enough to keep up. After pulling this apart tonight, it appears the new windshield installed by the previous owner was done in haste. I used an inspection mirror to confirm that there is NO urethane sealer/glue on the driver side bottom! Nothing! W T F! ... Fixed with some clear silicone.

What did they use for the rest of the windshield? That urethane glue is meant to keep the windshield from flying out in a crash as well as seal it.

Got my butt up this morning to go and hoop with a some people for a few hours. Haven't played in like two years, needless to say it wasn't pretty. Sorer than a $2 whore now though, but it was fun.

Hit up the movies to see American Sniper in IMAX, good flick,very intense. Everyone was near silent when leaving the theater afterwards. Now home, doing some laundry, and trying to figure out who these guys are impersonating the Seahawks. :confused:

It is that black urethane stuff. I called Safelite and they refused to take a side job like this - they only do replacement. I could not get through to the nearest store. Kept sending me to the national call center. Plus I haven't had a moment to stop by that store 40 miles away. I'm wondering if a $100 bill could have had this perfect condition windshield reinstalled properly by a pro...

We just got back from seeing it too. Agree that it was a good flick and intense. Leaving our theater it was silent and theater was probably 80% full. Never left a movie to silence before. While waiting for wifey after movie, noticed alot of people with tears too.

Discussed via the phone with Brandon on which blend door actuators were probably broken in my rig, and our plan to fix them on our next meet up

At work minding the salt trucks
I had to do 2 trips to Viking Cives last week, wing positioners and main chain. After a lot of shoveling they ended up using a snow blower to empty the box.

At work, doing anything but... Been trolling the interwebz, browser shopping, chit chatting with anyone who's online, trying to coordinate people to go hooping (people here are seriously slacking :hissyfit:) and trying to figure out what I want to eat later. Feeling rather indecisive on that one. :undecided:

Mourning the loss of an old friend. Could I get a moment of silence for my old 4Runner. The guy I sold it to just emailed me these:

IMG_0579.JPGIMG_0580.JPGIMG_0581.JPGIMG_0582.JPG

Thankfully, he said he walked away without a scratch. So its not all bad. Sad day for me though, we had some good times. It came from British Colombia, I bought it in Toronto and drove it to central Newfoundland and back. The guy I sold it to, drove it back to British Colombia for it to die on a mountain road possibly not too far from where it was originally sold! Such is the circle of life I guess...

Flip it back over and drive it lol. It doesn't look that bad... Just curious how he managed to do that.

Not really sure, he said the truck rolled or slid off the road. Maybe black ice or something.

The roof is probably FUBAR but you surly could chop that off, get a bimini type canvas top made and turn it into a great bush buggy.
