I'm a DIY kinda of guy, Is it worth it to buy/invest in the tools necessary to replace my own windshields with low cost junk yard ones or not worth the hassle and just pay a professional company. Worried I'll screw something up.
I have 2011 Hyundai Sonata (I know you're not a Hyundai fan but I've had great luck with them but I also do the maintenance on them ) M/t w/ 204k miles and a 2014 Ford Expedition 240k miles. Both run great and hope to keep for sometime.
What are your thoughts?
No

I commuted back and forth on the highway for 3 years, going approximately 28 miles one way, and I had a rock damage the windshield of my '99 Ranger. It had around 280k miles on it at that time and it was the original windshield. You likely won't use it, and I think you're supposed to be trained on the matter by a professional before attempting it.
My step dad has commuted 50 miles one way on the highway, every day, for 10+ years, and he's never had to replace a windshield, either.
If you have glass coverage, it's free with most types of full coverage insurance, anyways. No, it's not worth it.
Thank you
