    My CMax is the first car I've owned with them and, at first, I thought they were a little gimmicky until I lived with them. Nice, convenient feature that works well. It has the traditional intermittent wipers too.

    I also have the HUD projector...only got it because it came with the solar roof, but I've come to love it!

    The HUD is very convenient you dont have to take your eyes off the road since the speed and the hybrid system indicator is right in front of you on the glass

    I didn't even know such a thing existed. They just think of everything.

    I didn't even know such things were necessary! :confused: To paraphrase Bob Zimmerman "…you don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows!" (or that it's raining)! - Wil (who uses Rain-X)

    Rain-X is one of the best products I have used over the last 20 years. Once over about 30mph I rarely have to use the wipers except for when it's a very light mist. Loved the HUD on my 2002 Bonneville SSEI - glad to see it coming to vehicles that don't cost 37k :)

    Totally unnecessary on the other side of The Pond; for as everyone knows its always raining in Blighty! (the wipers ought to come on whenever the motor is on! :rolleyes: )
