RE: Longer Wiper Blades
Even though I use longer wiper blades (20" and 19") I have also wondered
about the additional load on the wiper motors and transmission.  I think
the point is well taken that maybe the motors were speced for a specific
load/length on the blades.  Or maybe the other way around? They got a
bargain on the motors and had to specify the shorter blades to meet the
specs on the motors?
