I'm fine, you? My point was that people do not have to drive in the rain because someone online thinks they should, but if they do wiper fluid is usually not used since the rain water cleans the window. And I spread my miles out over 3 vehicles so who can say I need to drive my Porsche more - more than what? More than you? And in the rain? People can decide themselves, that's all.

If you never have the need for washer fluid, good on you, I won't convince you to to fill it.
I keep mine filled. I've used Rain-X also in different cars, but wasn't there some issue with their formula gumming up the sensor in some cars (mainly euros)?

I recommend avoiding the rain x Orange washer fluid. Plenty of Audi owners have had it cause issues with the sensor in the tank.

sounds good. Not rated for freezing. Not good.
from auto geek:
Mixing Ratios:
1.5 parts Anti-Frost + 1 part water....-20°F
1 part Anti-Frost + 1 part water.......... -5°F
1 part Anti-Frost + 2 parts water........11°F
1 part Anti-Frost + 3 parts water........18°F
1:1 for -5F protection. So $10/gallon. Might me a good deal for you Floridians not for Coloradans.

In Canada I like yellow in spring, fall and summer and green in winter. But then I went to Atlanta and it was green for year round. Really messing with us with these colours. And is mixing colours scary?
