    Member back in Ye Olden Tymes when you’d have to slide the blade out and slide the new one in? And it never went in right and usualy sliced up the new blade and you had to pretend it wasn’t fuX0re3d for a year or so until you tried again?

    None of these fancy-pants clip-in and snap-out jazz. Nosir. We were real dull men back in them days, tell you whut. *snkkfff* Real annoyed dull men.

    I’ve got a banger of a day planned tomorrow - 3 wipers and a new battery for my family wagon. Can’t forget to reset the clock and drive conservatively for a couple days (as the ECU will reset its long term fuel trim tuning). May as well give the tires a little air, too. Every 10 degree F drop in temperature loses 1 psi of pressure, you know.

    I’ve been neglecting to change the front blades on our car, the drivers side is kind of bad.

    I need to order the inexpensive blades online, but keep forgetting.

    But tonight, I put on a brand new pair I had in storage for our other car. They’re an inch or two too short, but it’s way better than it was. I think I’ll order the right pair right now.

    I changed the front pair last week. As for the rear, well… it stopped working ages ago, and I stopped caring shortly after. Come to think of it, I’m not 100% sure it even has a wiper blade.
