Default Re: Towing Cab Tractor - Stone Chips on Glass?

Broke the front glass of my JD 3720 last fall when hauling it on a trailer. I suspect it happened on a recently oiled asphalt road which had layer of gravel added on top. Don't know if it came from my truck or meeting a car/truck. Shattered into a million pieces. Cost to have dealer replace was around $1100. $400 for windshield, rest labor. My tractor insurance covered it. Had to remove top of cab to replace. I have hauled it many times before that without incident. I now haul it backwards when possible because the rear window is easy to replace compared to the front. I don't use any special protection on the glass.
