I’m tired of scraping my windshield so I’m trying out putting an old tarp over the windshield to try to make it easier to clean off with less ice. 🚘❄Not sure how well it will work, it might freeze to the truck or rip, but that’s why I am using an old tarp. It was such a pain to clean off the windshield with the ice the other day, so hopefully this will work. I’m one for experimentation. The tarp is loosely put over the truck to avoid sticking and held down to ground using bottles of windshield washer fluid and antifreeze. It either will work or not. Worth a try.
After so many relatively mild winters, this seems like the first big one in years. Maybe not that terrible but it seems like most of this winter has been cold and snowy. ❄❄❄❄
