Not So Pro 3

[JoeDirt]

I’m not joking here, but on some pickup trucks, intentionally installing wipers that are 1” shorter than what is listed, actually increases the life of the wiper blade itself. A former auto parts store owner from my hometown told me that years ago, and I tried it - he was right. With original length, the wiper blade itself would flexing a lot on the far end leaving the flatter surface of the glass as it laid down. With the shorter blade, it stayed on the glass better, and I didn’t experience the usual failure.


…But I get what you’re saying about that knucklepuck you mentioned. “If you can afford the Ferarri, you can afford the oil change.”

Never heard that, but it makes sense. I just put wipers on the grandpa Buick yesterday. The last two inches or so of the passenger side wiper doesn't make full contact with the glass on the far right edge of the windshield. The old one didn't either, I guess the glass is too curved for it? It doesn't really inhibit my vision but it is mildly annoying.

But anyways, I really just find it hilarious the stuff people will cheap out on.

I was measuring the backsplash to order new tile and the tape slipped, just happened to slide down behind the plug from the coffee maker and arch on the two prongs. Melted the metal tape and scorched the outlet but didn’t trip the gfci or breaker.

Singapore is often referred to as a flag of convenience, I wouldn’t read anything in to that. Owners could be anything from Russian Oligarch to Donald J Trump, oh wait…

I have a pretty good supply on hand right now, stocked up pretty good in Fargo last summer.

probably more like a chinese or trudeau communist shipping company

Yes this exactly. Try a shorter wiper on that side.

Singapore would not be China, too much political BS between them. China is going to be a Liberia, something African more so than anything Asian.
