Sickening. Reminds me of those pictures of folks with huge tumors on their faces. Glad it's on a throwaway car like a Rav4.

Wow, an Isetta in US roads?

Oh man, she let herself go, bigtime.

Sitting in my truck in the rain @ WAWA this morning, finishing off a phone call, eyeing over the boring flek buzzing in & out for coffee & gastro-intestinal delights.

I note a guy sitting in his vehicle, and with his wipers on delay, I note that the 2 windshield wipers are VASTLY different in length, a difference in the neighborhood of a FOOT. Can you imagine being locked into going to a dealership to buy wiper blades... or buying TWO sets from the aftermarket? This was NOT an owner 'upgrade'- it was factory.

Anyone know what vehicle I'm talking about ??

Anyone fathom why engineers would do this when 2 dozen pre-existing designs all managed to use 2 of the SAME SIZE blades (besides the obvious) ??

The Vibe has 2 different sizes. and most if not all wipers are individually packaged

Well now- I DO recall buying wipers individually packaged, now that you all remind me. Huh.

Anyway- check out the wipers on the mazda CVU or whateveritscalled- the size disparity is something else.

Every car but I think the Shadow has diffrent size wiper blades. I can't recall the last time I saw wiper blades come as a set of 2....I always see them packed inividually.

As I recall, the Prizm's, which I just bought wipers for, are 18" on the passenger side, and 20" on the driver's side.

Saw the Hetfield stuff on the previous page, thought I would throw this in. I didn't make this.
