Ill go first.

I hate:

Scraping off the frost on my windows!
doesnt someone make a product that you could put over your window at night and just take it off in the morning??

2

Yeah, a car cover.

I hate: cold. :frowning: :frowning: :frowning:

3

they do and i have one… never took the time to really try it though… i’m not one to get out of my car and cover up my windshield, i’d rather go inside

4

i hate:

  • christmas ‘specials’ : as we all know nothing is ‘special’ until it’s on sale after christmas

  • salvation army’s bells… i hear them wherever i go outside, from the parking garage to work, work to lunch, work to parking… always… it’s constant :madfawk:

  • traffic, why do more people drive around like assholes in the winter?

  • ‘holiday cheer’: i hate when people act all fake…

5

you know what the product might be called???

i dont want a whole car cover, just window covers

6

tin foil, about 2.39 at giant eagle :dunno:

7

i’ll see if it has any tags… i’m thinking it was one of those fake products that they make displays for around department stores this time of year… it’s just a cover for the windshield that folds and zips into a square… rather odd design. i don’t remember what holds it to the car… i’ll try to find it tonight.

8

newspaper??

i’ve seen many people use that…

I think they even make Ice/frost melting washer fluid
just spray it on and it melts the frost/ice right off.

I hate Snow & Salt…gets everything all messy…track it in the house the car etc…
such a pain in the ass to clean up.

I hate it when you pour a concrete pad but don;t get to seal it because the weather doesn;t cooperate then buy time it snows you already have a hairline crack and get pissed off. Yeah that shit sucks :mad: :last year:

Glad I got it sealed this year.

10

I’d rather have snow than what we have right now with the muddy wet nasty ass rain…

11

i have one of those windshield covers, they suck ass. i used it for like a week… way to much work then they freeze too

12

i have some cheap plastic that I use to cover at night wake up peal off easy as shit im sure you can find plastic at homedepot better than scraping n shit

13

make wife start car,go out when its warn!

14

I haven’t scraped snow off a window in years - I bought a house with a garage :smiley:

for my truck, I just let it run for 15 minutes before I drive and all the frost/snow/ice is gone and it’s nice and warm when I get in it.

15

I’m gonna have to start doing that in the AM. I hate scraping.

16

gots no wife, no garage…

17

I have one of those window cover thingys…never used it tho. maybe i should try to find it :slight_smile:

18

I just remember to leave the heat and blower on high when I get out of my pickup. I have the remote starter on that one. But since I never drive it (especially in winter) thats not really any concern. I would like to put one in my car but it would be too much hassle to by pass the clutch switch and also remembering to keep it out of gear. Starting them early and letting them run is my favorite way. hell, i don’t even own a scraper.

19

the rain-x washer fluid kicks ass, melted the frost right away for me last year

20

i don’t have windshield pissers :frowning:

i just drive with a frosted windshield and make due.
