    Why do the wipers suck so bad on the taco, already on my third set and only owned it a year, and they all streak. Tried 3 brands too

    Congratulations on being free and clear ! Do you use a torque wrench when you rotate tires ? If not does it cause any problems ?

    I scraped my windshield with a razor blade but I guess I'll try the Rain-X washer. Thanks.

    I use a torque wrench every time I swap tires or rotate them.

    Another vote for Trico Neoforms, they are great! Also I don't use a torque wrench on my wheels and never have had a problem.

    If you take a cotton swab and put some rubbing alcohol on it and then scrub it up and down a blade that is streaky it helps. Not sure how it helps, but it does.

    I'm not saying it's a permanent fix and I always had my doubts myself. However, in a pinch and to buy some time before the next blades someone told me to try it and it works. I never get more than a year out of a set of blades here in MT no matter what...

    No teasing guys! She's for sale.....I love this truck and built it from the ground up myself but I'm buying a house and could use the funds!! I posted in on Craigslist earlier but I will make one on here too later tonight......I don't see many trucks selling off this forum so I'm not too hopeful but it won't hurt
