On the escort when it was at about 33 mpg combined. They were older rain guards and stuck out more than modern versions do.
While driving in rain, you could watch water drops come off windshield, roll to side glass and hit rain guards. Drops would come off the guards and get caught in a vortex right behind, or even travel to the front of the car at speed.
Once removed, water now clears easily off the side glass.
One of those little changes that doesn't mean much, but a bunch of those little changes equals a lot.
