RainX is a windshield treatment that you can apply to your outside windshield after you clean it (for the best results) and it repels the water off your windshield when it rains. Rather than a Splash- it stays beaded (like it does on vinyl or a "water repellent" jackets) and it slides down the windshield without leaving much of, if at all, a "trail" - and when you have to actually use your wipers, it is MUCH more effeicient in getting the water off

It only effected 72,000 trucks. Until Chrysler releases the VIN of all of the trucks effected, they will not do any recall work.

Glad to help - Im not a Ram Girl just yet but I know a few things. Like with stains from just about anything, a lil hot water and some "Baby All" detergent and washcloth - boom, takes it out.

Oh, and you wanna make the other guys jealous.. take that 'ugly' vertical grille truck up to OK, get with me - take some kick *** shots of your truck with the hot redhead model?? They'd be trippin over themselves then - besides, I need some new portfolio pictures for the new me coming back into the modeling field

I like the vert grille, just not the fact its chrome - *runs to hide from Hammer & his ban hammer*

Only bad thing about rainX is that when you do use your wipers they skip across the windshield instead of a smooth action...same thing with the rainX wiper fliud.

...unless you do one of 2 things:

-- Do it when you get new wipers and keep up on it, if you still use your wipers it will rub the rainx stuff off so you would have to apply more later on to keep up with it. that also happens if you apply the wax unevenly and dont buff it evenly... its like when you get those nasty bugs on the indhsield that dont wipe off easily... which the rainx helps with too IMO

-- the other is get the contour wipers with the rainx solution, I haven't done this personally but I have heard and seen good things with it (field of work, and one of my 'boxes' I work out of is next to the automotive department in the sears LMAO!!
