33,500 plus miles on my Cobra and maybe a couple of thousand on other Cobras. 9 trips to the London Cobra Show, last time 310 miles of rain on the trip home. That beats the old record of 70 miles.

NO, you do not need it. You can clean your windshield with a mixture of 1/3 distilled water, 1/3 alcohol and 1/3 white vinegar. Then wash with alcohol, let dry. Apply RainX per their instructions. Be sure to buff with clean cotton rag. Wait and re-apply. Do both sides of the windshield.

You don't need wipers in the rain but they help if it's a heavy rain.

Bugs are easy to clean off but it takes the vinegar to cut dried bug guts.
