Agreed. It's good to know I'm not the only one OCD about wipers.
Yes, when it comes to seeing well especially at night in foul weather for my aging eyes, I want the best view outward that I can get.
Which includes buying wiper blades that work best on my vehicles. This time it happens to be the Rain-X Latitude/Repel Beam Style Wiper Blades. Cheap wipers such as inexpensive name brands or store brands, DO NOT WORK WELL FOR ME! They seem to be *&($*#, right out of the package!
With periodic applications of Rain-X Glass Treatment and keeping my wiper blade rubber clean(er) as mentioned and properly aimed headlights, these all have added to my driving confidence at night when visibility is poor especially in the rain or in a windy down pour when the rain is blowing sideways.
Yeah, I'm anal about my vehicles...We have to drive'em in all types of hot, cold and really foul weather. I not only want to see well but, I want good heat/AC, and tires, amongst other things. And when I turn that key on a sub zero morning, I want the engine to start, like right now!...I'm not asking too much!
