    The windshield removal tool may not be standard procedure for safelite, but it is for volunteer firefighters when they extricate patients. Love the content. My dad rebuilt vehicles for 40 years, so watching these videos takes me back to my childhood of watching him take something like this or any other vehicle you have done and make it look brand new.

    I only live in Illinois because family is around here, otherwise I'd be in a snowless location. Have bought many cars from Arkansas and the south because "no rust". Rust sucks big time and why pay for it if you can drive a few miles south and not have to deal with it. Most of the cars I've bought in AR have had razorback decals on the rear window. Go Hogs! Always look forward to your rebuilding videos!

    Enjoy your videos--great job! Had to laugh; back in the mid 70's started my first job, traveling all over the state of AR to rural communities. First thing I noticed was that everybody drove short bed pickups (this was before the days of crewcabs) instead of our long bed pickups we were accustomed to on the farm in MO. And a bunch of then in Eastern AR, in the rice area, were 4WD. Maybe it's the same today.

    My wife's '05 K1500, 5.3 LS Crew Cab, short bed 4WD is red too. She wanted a "small pickup truck" to carry her 3-wheel bike to places where she rides with her girlfriends. I just got it out of the paint shop for a redo of the roof and the tailgate -- $1800.00. Gack. I don't paint any more and sure was caught sucking wind at that price --- but it's for her and she's happy.
