If you're old enough to remember, it's a little unsettling and strange. (lemmy.world)

I have a 2004 Honda element, the windshield attracts bugs like craz. In the summer I can go through a gallon of fluid in a few weeks. I also have a 2008 Outback, which is the one I usually take across state lines to see family. It's better at keeping them off the glass, but the washer line is busted and the tank is cracked, so I still end up having to use gas station squeegee a couple times per trip.

I can't win.

What general area do you live in if you don't mind me asking. The south east has seen less bugs in my experience.

Midwest. Great Plains region.

I replaced the washer line on my 2016 Outback. It looked way more complicated than it was, and I think I took the bumper off when I didn't have to. You should look at YouTube. I recall thinking how easy it would be to do it a second time.

Yeah, I've been told it's easy on the '08, too. The truth is I'm not really on the highway that much to begin with, unless I'm visiting family in the next state over or very occasionally running to one of the bigger cities. It's not enough to justify at this point, and I'd wager not enough by the time I sell the ol' girl.

I miss my 2006 Element dearly. By far my favorite vehicle that I've owned. It did feel like a rock catcher though. I had to replace the windshield several times.
