Re: wiper blades

Probably regular soapy water would be best. I keep them as clean as I can and replace them at least once per year, they're not that expensive.

Re: wiper blades

I'm very happy with mine, too. 29 or 30 mpg everyday, better on highway trips. It has all the toys I need, too. Of course it would be nice to have 200+ supercharged horses like the Cobalt SS, but the power is decent.

Mine just turned over 22,500 miles.
I only have 2 kids right now, 2 girls, one 4 months the other 2 years.
I don't care for those idiots at that magazine either, I've always had great luck with Cavaliers, over 200,000 miles was not uncommon for me. According to them, we should all be driving an Accord or Camry.

i agree.......not enough U.S.A. support for our own made cars..

i have 4 girls 8, 6, 4, 1/12 and they love the car, they wash it all the time and really surprise me how clean they detail the insides.

i guess with our low milers we can expect a long happy road ahead....

Re: wiper blades

I hate that long silver bowtie, it was the first thing I noticed when the new models came out, did you have to get a new piece or were you able to remove it from the stock piece?

Re: wiper blades

I removed it using a combination of fishing line, goo gone, wd 40, blow dryer and lots of patience.

Re: wiper blades

That's first thing I'd do. Looks sooo much better!
