I voted "I had a chip and it was repaired well and happy about the repair" for my H2. It got drilled and glued very nicely and is barely noticable given that I've always got all sorts of bugs/dirt on the windshield. It's right in the driver area, but low down so I don't have to look through it.

On my previous vehicle, an Xterra, I had a similarly sized chip right in the center of my vision, I had it drilled and glued and it was a bad looking repair. It prevented cracks, but it was very visible.

I got a few chips, one looks to have very tiny cracks coming from it. Just waiting for a big rig to kick up another rock, so he can buy me a new windshield

Regardless of the windshield, I don't think I want anything to do with the "Crack Club"

Don't have the H3 yet, but have lost a couple of windshields on I-87 before (99 Ford F-250 Superduty and the wifes 04 Cadillac SRX) due to flying stones. Both times got hit right in front of my face and they both cracked real fast. The wifes prior ride (00 Ford Windstar) got a small chip real low on the windsheild and we had it repaired. You could hardly see the spot after.

The windshield Gods have been kind to me so far, no hits yet.

I hope I haven't pissed them off with this
