    Down.
    My Subaru Legacy has de-icer coils under the wipers and it takes less than a minute to de-ice them once you hit the switch.

    The car was covered in ice after work today took a few minutes to get it off all of the windows.

    Mine are up only if I talk dirty to them.

    Garages at home and work, but never put them up, anyway, even street parking in Boston. Like others have said, don't see the advantage, and the heater takes care of it by the time I get to the windshield. Useful, I suppose, for those people who do the bare minimum of car leaning, though- I can see how saving a few seconds is useful when you're trying to minimize the time spent clearing off your car. In which case it should be a 30 raffle ticket charge.

    up.. and then sometimes i'll stuff a couple rags in the wells so that their clean, unless there is ice expected then I don't use the rags.
    so here's a toast with one last pour, to last forever and a minute more. may fortune sing to you her song, to live and love way past long, may you live and love way past long. sonny landreth.

    I leave them up so after a big dump it gives me better odds of finding which truck is mine.
