53 days of ownership, 5400 miles. (Purchased new.)
Most recent mod: Windshield tentacles! :facepalm: :facepalm:
Definitely not tailgating a gravel truck. The dang rock really looked like it was tossed down from a cloud. I guess it's more likely another vehicle launched it, though. It even chipped the paint!

I had a hit just like this, except no traffic, zero, I propose birds are dropping rocks on jeeps from above.

I want to believe.
I witnessed a rock being thrown forward off my jeep, after leaving a gravel road back onto blacktop. It then bounced up and onto hood, did no damage but dang...

I have gone 4 years with my 2020 JLU Rubi and not a scratch… and now that I said it, it will probably shatter tomorrow! Knocking on wood right now!

I can see that happening but it would definitely require a series of unfortunate flukes. Worst of all is that you cant even scream at the other driver for doing it.

Just got my first one! Only 6500 miles on her. I normally am very careful to not follow trucks too closely, but sometimes it can’t be helped. I already got the claims process going since it’s free in Florida. I called Safelite to see if they had a choice in windshields. They told me I could get the one with the gorilla on it at no extra charge. Sounds like Gorilla glass. Will it fit a regular Sport model? I can’t imagine there’s much difference in fitment.
