    I carry a block of wood that is about 3 1/2" thick. If I am parked on unlevel ground I put it under a steer tire to make the truck more level. Sure beats waking up with a headache. And I know I could just sleep facing the other direction but I do it this way so I can still watch TV before bed.

    Putting it in straight won't do much.
    And with the cost for a small bottle, it would be very expensive to do a 50/50 mix.

    The best thing is to buy the RainX windshield washer fluid. It is designed to work correctly.
    Walmart has it in cold areas.

    I dont care for that Rain X stuff. Falls under the category of snake oil to me. It works for awhile but you have to keep re-applying it.

    you can make your own baby wipes out of paper towels. One paper towel sprayed down with some kind of cleanser for wiping the seat down before sitting and another paper towel sprayed down with a mile cleanser or straight water for wiping your butt.
