Im an idiot......

Yesterday on my way to the gym, my car was making this crazy sound and i could feel something grinding as i applied the clutch, not being able to locate the problem i called my mechanic and had him meet me somewhere. We looked for almost 20 minutes and you will not believe what it was. My boss thought it would be funny to turn my wipers on full blast (i don’t have wipers, i took them off so all i have is the bolt that holds them on and the motor) needless to say, the noise was the motor running but without wipers i didn’t even think about that. Im a dumb ass, i was pissed because im selling the car and did not want to put more money into it.

the car looks really clean without wipers, and that paint is awesome. on your last day, unhook your boss' car battery.

Rain-x is pretty awesome stuff, but it wont work great with super heavy rains, or mist.

from my experiences with rain-x the only factor is speed, if youre moving at 40+ mph then nothing sticks, not mist or heavy rain. morning fog will screw you over though.

No wipers is nuts. Good luck with that. Clean look though.
