    I almost never use an ice scraper. I have windshield wiper fluid that works at 25 below and run the truck for a bit before I go. The 25 below wiper fluid does the melting mostly. Windows fog up too much if you just scrap off the ice.

    Just get one with a scraper on one end and brush on other end. Telescopic one if you are gravitationally challenged and your vehicle isn't.

    I got the one from Costco in my truck. Used the ice scraper a few times with no issues. Mainly just start the truck, then brush all the snow off the truck and it's good to go.

    Really? We need a thread on ice scrapers now?

    What’s next? What’s the best windshield washer fluid thread? I wouldn’t be surprised actually. :oops:

    But was the scraper made on Japan though? You said you had no issues but we all know Japanese plastic is superior.
