When it Rains - it pours

So, got my baby back from the dealer after being torpedoed by a lady driving a Red Citroen…first road trip on the freeway and like a scud missile, I see a rock coming towards me from the other lane of the Autoroute (Freeway) - no where to go with a wall on one side and another car I was passing in the other lane, this rock hits dead center on the windshield, right above the center speaker. My passenger saw it too, and he put his arms up, as we both thought it was coming through…BAM!!! The loudest, most sickening sound next to another vehicle hitting yours.

F'n rock put a coin sized pattern of damage (cracks) on the inside of the glass.

Odd thing is, the glass is smooth to the touch on both the outside/inside of the glass - but since I have a HUD, thinking this means total replacement.

Just can't seem to catch a break lately! Add this mishap to the freak hail storm damage to the car before I took delivery and i'm starting to think my baby is jinxed...

At least your bad luck isn't occurring in a Ford Fiesta...could be worse! Better days are ahead I'm sure
