How did the Bullsh|tstone EL-42's help you stop in this mess?

For me, NYC is Home of The Sopranos, though I was at he real BadaBing club in Lodi Sunday before last for the season premier celebration. Man, what a party!!!

i drove in the storm with the el42's, they were pretty good. i know people crap on them all the time but i was cruising at 50-60mph. it was mostly slush with some patches of snow here and there. when i got into the city it was mostly water(with salt of course). i'm sorry to hear that the wipers failed on you. i did not experience any trouble with teh wipers during the storm but i was not in the same scenario as you. stupid storm now my car is all messy, time to zaino it as soon as possible.

The wipers going back on after ten minutes sounds like they might have an overload relay in the circuit so if the wipers get stuck because of snow, etc, it won't burn out the motor.

Here we go, New Yorkers trying to take credit for everything. Just about the whole show is in New Jersey. And it's not actually the "Bada Bing" it's Satin Dolls. It's not even that great of a strip club anyway. "Strippers" in bikini's dancing around. As for the windshield wipers, I had the same problem with my Integra when I first got it. It was raining, I was on Rt. 80 and they just stopped in the up position. I was stopped in traffic and they just stopped. i turned them off waitied a few seconds then they started up again. That was back in 99, five years later and 96K later it never happened again.
