If you tell your insurance agent that some debri "Flew" into the windshield most of the big companies replace it without a deductable. you have to make sure you say FLEW not that they would think that it rolled onto the windshield but I wish you the best, my rear windo shattered one day, to this day I have no idea how it happened but I paid 270 after installation.( i upgraded to a slide window instead of a solid one.)

It has a pretty good spread about a penny where i wouldve had it repaired easily like i have before but before i knew it one crack grew 3 and half to four inches and now it is too big.. i though i had at least a couple days..

Typically a good shop can repair a crck as long as 6 inches with no issues. Some shops will say they can't in order to get you to replace the windshield. However, as long as the crak is not in the field of vision, a reputable shop will almost always attempt the repair prior to replacing it. I checked on the cost of the windshield....about $230 thru safelite.
