Oh yes, they do the front and back windows, but when you get going, all the snow from the hood flies up onto the windshield and all the snow from the roof flows down onto the back window.<br />So there you go....advice from a former snow bunny.<br />Oh yes, and another tip is to always ALWAYS shovel your driveway way wider than you need because you'll find after multiple snowfalls the space just keeps magically getting smaller and smaller. So start big.<br />Ok..done now.Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01620619260478809274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4709135205683579877.post-4290963779172582222010-01-02T19:14:15.958-08:002010-01-02T19:14:15.958-08:00I don't get it... won't the snow just come...I don't get it... won't the snow just come off on its own once you start driving?
