It’s pouring rain today and I’m out enjoying the Monowiper in the Mercedes, speaking of wipers

One thing about it is it will splash in drive thrus, but you just turn it off.

I still think it was a mistake to drop this.

This car is fun in the rain, it weighs 4200lbs so it conquers the wet roads.

I just got this Covercraft sunshade. It’s been rainy and cloudy lately. So I haven’t gotten a chance to test it in the sun yet. It’s hard and rigid which makes it somewhat cumbersome to put up. I have to be careful not to bash the air vents.

But it will probably last longer than the soft spongy one I had before from autozone that turned to mush after a few years and wouldn’t stay up.


I am disappointed at the amount of daylight it lets thru around the mirror. I’m going to go by the craft store and see if I can make some type cover out of foam to slide around the mirror. I don’t want the sun searing down on the screen and shift ****.

Well, we thought this thread would last us through all of 2024, but y’all a talkative bunch!

I’m closing this one now, and have started its replacement, which you can find here:
