Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck

I use the RainX windshield washer fluid in the washer reservoir and get the same results. It even reapplies itself and stays put in the rain.
The best part is when you hit about 50 mph and the rain just beads off and you don't really need your wipers on.
It's a great gift too if you're looking for something that is relatively inexpensive but every time the giftee uses the washer, they'll think of you.

Cover that with a red and white checkered tablecloth, put it in the back of the VW bus, that would be my 5th birthday party. Times were sure simpler back then.

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck

Agree, it looks like a new dash pad. If this is your wife's attempt at hiding a present, she must not have been good at hide & seek as a kid.

Not a big enuff box for a Gregski deluxe dash pad. If thats a Christmas present, it's got to be underwear, and a cape.

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck

we are still only running on one electric motor, and only charging our battery to 90%


Fun Fact: We never set out to build a race truck!
