To each their own, I guess.

I think it's awesome anyway. Maybe I won't use it that often, but it's fun to show off to friends.

Well I can see this coming in handy next winter on our salty roads. There have been many times where I'd have to stop between fill-ups to clean the headlights. I wonder if it will help with the bug guts in the summer.
