Wiper problem?

Wiper problem?
Hi,
I just purchased my 08 RL Tuesday and love it! It has 26k miles on it. I drive 80 miles a day and will definitely appreciate the comfort and AWD features.
I traded my 07 Prius in for it (and got a high price due to the current gas prices).
I'll post some nice pics soon.
QUESTION: My wife noticed that the wipers don't look like fully retract, and after looking at pictures of RL's, I notice she's right. Do RLs have any history for this?
Thanks!
Rick

RL has a winter and everything else mode for wipers. Not really sure what "retract" means, but if I had to guess you're in winter mode where they are higher than usual.
All you have to do is lift and push back on them, they will retract.
Congrats on the new ride and getting rid of the boring Prius

its winter mode... they dont go all the way down in "winter mode" so that if snow build up on the windshield there's less mass for the wiper motor to move by starting out at a higher angle (kind of like getting a head start). mostly to prevent your wipers from breaking.

Why the drastic change in mode of transportation? Mostly safety. I need (yes need) AWD living where we live. I whited-knuckled the snowy country Wisconsin roads too often. Also, comfort! The Prius had the old man aching by the end of the work week. Seriously, the Prius had the worst seats ever (known for this by the prius community). Lastly, the RL is getting over 30mgp! That's 18mpg less that the smugmobile, but I can live with that for the benefits. Besides, due to the high gas prices, I got a ridiculously high price for the Prius.
Okay, can you tell that I'm feeling a little guilty?
