Re: Rear Wind Defroster Very Unimpressive
I have had to use mine on a couple of mornings with dew and it didn't get the rear window cleared in 2.5 miles (how far I have to go), but the outside mirrors were clear within a 1/4 mile! My Honda and Chrysler rear defroster were much faster!

So I call it the Dulles Greedway. And they want to raise the tolls to $4.20! Its owned by a private company.
So, it sounds like I'm not the only one that has noticed this. As was said, nobody's perfect. But still, if GM can build a rear window defroster than clears the thing in less than 5 minutes, why can't Toyota?

They have a zone system that clears a middle portion first (in under a minute easily) so you can see something out back there, and in 5 minutes everything is pretty much gone. Even winter frost cleared quickly. This kind of frost today would have taken probably 2 minutes, max, for the whole rear window.
