This ridiculous article wrote:There’s also thought to be a fuel saving, however small, due to the lack of wiper apparatus interfering with airflow over the vehicle.
I imagine that would be really high on the agenda for Maclaren drivers. :roll:

It also wrote:A lack of wipers brings with it multiple benefits to the driver. For one, no wipers means less things to break, so no more regular wiper changes.
.. just replacement of your $10,000 bespoke Maclaren ultrasound generator when it gets hit by a stone or gets water in the internals.

Haven't they heard of Rainex?
