Wipers

[HummerNewbie]

Since I live in Florida and don't have to deal with snow and ice, I really don't have a problem with it. I have always just shut my wipers off if I am not getting right back in the vehicle anyway. If you are running in someplace and back out in a minute or two, what is the problem unless it is snowing at the rate of about a couple feet an hour? Since this is such an issue, what did people do for decades when the wipers just stopped where they were as soon as the vehicle was turned off? Was everyone's vehicle getting damage whenever they were using the wipers and shut the vehicle off? I get tired of hearing comments about how poorly this or that was designed because it doesn't meet everyone's idea of the perfect design or operation. When someone finds the vehicle that is perfect for everyone and each and every feature operates exactly how everyone wants it to, let me know because I will dump every investment I have and put every dime into that manufacturer
