I would think a rock shard, splinter would b what broke the back window. My truck is at 28,000 Km, second winter, one crack, very small rock chip that has spread about 8 inches long now. Now this winter, 2nd winter, I have 3 or more little stars from rocks on the road, at least two at once.

2005 truck, 13 winters, 8 windshields, 2000 truck, about 5 windshields in 5 winters.

86 5 litre mustang GT, 8 years, never a rock chip, but I was always going so fast and around everyone so fast, not a single rock chip or windshield replaced, but then, I needed the money for tickets.��

Sounds like just bad luck.

Great looking truck! What tires/lift are you running?
Thanks, I'm running on Cooper SST pros 37's and a 3.5 readylift.
