Winter Windshield Wipers?
So was just out in this storm for 3 hours. Car continues to perform beautifully in the snow as far as stability and sure-footedness. The only problem was with the windshield wipers, which were leaving streaks of road water on the windshield that was then freezing. Conditions were:
18-20 degrees
Moderate to heavy snow
Heavy traffic
10-40 miles per hour possible
When there was no car in front of me, I just ran without the wipers, as usual for the snow.
The problem was when there was a car in front or a truck in the lane next to me or when the speeds were down very low and I needed to clean off the windshield.
So my question is this: do I need to invest in winter wipers? If so, what brand(s) do you recommend.
Thanks!
