When I had the 2005 Scooby, I cracked the windshield by keeping the hot defrost on trying to clear ice on the wipers, so.

To avoid that turn On the defroster before you start the car and it warms the windshield glass slowly. Voice of experience. I don't know how that would work on a Tesla.

every car I've ever used, the front windshield is heated by the warm air heated by the warm engine coolant. Engine won't get warm without running. And the air starts out cold for several minutes.

Both my girl's cars have the Subaru heated wipers, nice feature.

The Falcon Cayuse wins the sweepstakes, all-time WTF grill award.

That 73 XA Falcon looks like a Chevelle w/a Capri grille and headlights.

I like it.

speakin of Falcons that's what I thought when I first saw the "Cayuse". That's a nice looking soft top Falcon there. Even with the asymetrical grill.
