Default Wind Shield Cracked! Talk about bad luck!

Well like usual I was getting ready to wash the truck and it wasn't that hot, So As soon as the water touched the windshield it cracked and I Was like NOOOOO!!!!!! It cracked from top to bottom and then another crack from left to right about 8 inches across. Anyone know how much it costs to replace it? I would like an original but if its a arm and a leg I'll take a oem.

Yea that's the average weird, although my dad found a company that's really cheap but I don't know if they use cheap glass or what not.

if you want to talk about bad luck, today my friend on the freeway got hit with a rock and it left a dent in his windshield and then as he was pulling into the auto place to patch it so it wouldn't crack, he went through a dip causing it to crack like 8 inches so now hes out like $250
