Yes, but it's engineered to block UV light and radiant heat of normally much darker tint, so it's perfect for windshield tinting.

Through proprietary technology, LLumar AIR80 window film provides enhanced protection against harmful ultraviolet rays, while also keeping vehicles significantly cooler. Testing has demonstrated that installing LLumar AIR80 film can keep a vehicle’s interior surfaces as much as 29 degrees Fahrenheit (16 degrees Celsius) cooler when compared to an unprotected vehicle. This temperature reduction increases cabin comfort and reduces the load on air conditioning systems. The non-conductive ceramic coating technology ensures there is no interference with electronic signals from radios, GPS devices, cellular telephones or electronic toll sensors.

“Exceptional added protection from UV rays is one of the prime benefits of the full range of LLumar UV window film products. While other films employ dark-colored tinting to achieve similar levels of heat rejection, LLumar AIR80 window film is light enough to meet the DOT’s safety regulations for most commercial trucks as well as many window visibility laws worldwide,” said Mark Gershenson, global automotive segment director for Solutia’s Performance Films division.

Little change of plan ... I'm gonna hold off for a couple of months on the windshield tint.

Right now I would have to have it applied over or cut around my registration/inspection stickers. We're moving to S. Florida soon where, as I understand it, they don't make you have any stickers at all. So rather than having to do it twice, I'll just do it once when I get down there and register the truck.

I grew up there and you definitely won't need registration/inspection stickers so one less thing to worry about. No state income tax is a nice perk as well.

I don't know if you can handle the heat all the time down there, it would be to much I think

The sun is the same all over as it is in FL.

Summers were alot hotter when we lived in NC. The humidity levels are what makes it tolerable.

It's not the heat that gets me, it's the humanity.
