i've used mine like 5 times this weekend, with all the snow the melted the dirt roads are mud and i couldn't see out the back a few times.

I ran my wiper fluid out using the rear wiper last weekend because of the snow and salt.

When I had my mitus eclipse (hatch) I wish that had a rear wiper. Most cars need them.

Never used mine all last winter and we get plenty of snow and road grime. This summer I took it off!

thought of this post while driving today, drove through 2 blizzards, an hour and a half of fog, like 10 temp changes and a ton of road grime.

don't know what i would have done without my wiper.

Either you never use the rear window to look out or you just rely on the side mirrors.

Other wise the rear window is useless with out the wiper in messy storm.

I also think the SS spoiler make things worse. It is like it helps create a suction on the rear and pulls the water and muck up.
