A friend of mine is buying a Mercedes that has a single windshield wiper.
The dealer says its better than two wipers but didn't know why. I recall
seeing single wipers on Sciroccos, but unlike those this one actually has a
second smaller 6" wiper down at the base. I could imagine putting it at
the top where it could swing to the corners, but that's not the case here.
It all seems very odd.
My friend's Toyota Cressida has a shoulder belt that automatic wraps around
you when you start the car. It's really nice. However, the lap belt is
not automatic. This seems somewhat half-assed, although I'm sure the
design is intentional. Can anyone explain why they did it like this. (As
usual, the dealer can't.)
