Another option for when your wipers stop working in heavy rain or snow is to tie a string to the tip of each wiper then run it through the cab and tie both ends together. As you drive down the road you can pull the string back and forth to make your wipers move. It is very ghetto but it works and is much cheaper than a tow truck. Redneck engineering FTW!
