Oh yea rub it in that you work for the cat in the hat.

I'll bite, I work for AGC Automotive America I make the auto glass for Ford as well as every other major car company. I right now am working on the line that makes the rear fixed glass for the four and five door 2012 focus. The line next to it makes the same glass for the edge, and the front line makes the windsheilds for the focus. The focus is one of the handfull of cars we actually make all the glass for. We also make replacement glass for body shops and glass companys, and Yes if I need glass for my car or truck and they have it in stock they will give to me for free or next to nothing. Just one of the perks.

I've been working in Ford Dealerships for 37 years. Remember tune-up in a can? Contained plugs points condenser and cam lube. Some of the part numbers still started with the letter "B" which was the 50s decade.
