I’m sure the amount of dirtied windshield is percentage comparable to other vehicles, it’s just the CT windshield is asinine huge that there appears to be a stark difference.

And no I haven’t measured anything ?

The windshield is very large, I am going to guess the main field of view from the seating position would not be obscured unless you purposely looked up.

In which case, in other cars, you would see a solid roof.

I am probably not 100% right, but I may be close enough for it not to be an issue.

So heres where the dividing line is between windshield you use and what you dont. Below that is some other wiper examples. What do you drive?

I unintentionally experienced extreme version of this example, the passenger side wiper arm broke on my Q7 during heavy rain and I was fine, the view was fine and I was driving in the rain for the rest of the week and had no problem with road visibility from driver side.

We had that problem on a road trip with my spouse in the passenger seat.

She was not amused.

That corner that isn’t getting wiped is pissing me off. Can we get a mini-wiper extension?
No, but you can cancel your reservation and buy a truck with two wimpy wipers if that's what you're accustomed to. I'm not sure why it matters, but you do you!

Of course it's a work truck, because that's what it was designed to replace. Some people who apparently can't think clearly and logically have let the anti-Cybertruck narrative that it's not a work truck take hold in the base of their tiny brain and they can't seem to shake it.

Oh, sure, they will have 101 flimsy reasons why it's not a real work truck, like the sides are too high to reach over, or it can't tow long distances, or it's ugly looks prohibit it from being a work truck (my personal favorite).

But, yeah, it's a work truck just as much as any F-150 or Chevy Silverado 1500. This will become increasing obvious to crestfallen detractors as the Cybertruck is pressed into an amazing variety of real work truck situations and increases profits by reducing downtime and fuel, oil and maintenance expenses.

I don’t know what a 100% right would look like here, but you’re not wrong

meanwhile, where’s the hand-wringing over the wiper coverage in the highest selling car on the market?

I don’t think you can get a “mini-ANYTHING” on the CT!
Other than the CT itself. Otherwise it doesn’t fit in the box (garage).
