Where you live? ...like it does not rain or snow off season there? Run wipers and heat, and drive it more.
wipers that way you can drive on those bad days. and still see. which last time i checked is an important aspect of driving and wrecking your ride.
It's funny that you ask, I thought I would be a tough guy and not run any on my dodge, well this deal broke me of sucking eggs when I came home from this years Pileup and had to drive from Tulsa to Cushing in the pouring freaking rain at 10:00 at night. I was drawed up like a chihuahua shitting a peach hull. Gonna get them working this winter for sure.
Oregon used to be that way. I normally run wipers because I normally like to drive rain, or snow or sleet or??? Lots of fellas get by without them but I don't run a neutral switch so I figure I should have wipers.
What kind of question is this??? My car came standard with them.... It be real stupid not to use them when the weather calls for it....
Aside being able to see in the sleet,snow,or rain you might need them for inspection...... If you care.
No wipers. None of mine have working wipers, and one doesnt even have a place for them. Requires Rainx and luck ...
I've tried luck before, let me tell you about luck. If it was raining soup I would go out and get hit in the mouth with a hay bale.
I have a windshield wiper motor on all three of my deuces but still rely on the tried and true rainX,,it works a lot better than the crapp . y arms and blades that look right on the car.HRP
A guy I know got in a wreck ... hit by another truck. His wipers did not work but he had Rain X ... He could see ok ... but the Judge charged him with the wreck ... and his insurance had to pay. Then he had a equipment violation ticket too. Like HRP ... I have working wipers on my cars but reply mainly on Rain X. But SOMETIMES ... you need BOTH !!
Uh RAIN predicted tonight through Sunday. They came in handy for me driving through the snow on the Grapevine. Just sayin'.
cant live without em, even the shitty little ones on my PU. drove home from ocean city maryland two years ago, a 4 hour trip, rained like crazy the entire trip,, used rainex but after awhile i needed those wipers! my friend in the roadster ,had a top but no side windows or wipers, he shook like a dog shittin razor blades the whole trip , needless to say he hardly ever goes far from home with that car after that
It's bad enough having wipers that only work half assed let alone no wipers. I've used rain EX and it works great until as Rainhater1 said and you get stuck behind or passed by a semi or big 4X4. I drive way too much and way to far from the house to not run wipers on any vehicle I have that has enough windshield to need wipers.
Remember, some guys in SoCal and plenty of other states don't pull their fun car out of the garage if there is a cloud in the sky that even looks like it might have moisture in it.
