If I can have it, I need wipers on both ORVMs and front window seats as well

Yes really ! In Pune rains, there have only been one or two instances when I felt the need to switch on the rear wipers too and this was on the Pune-Mumbai expressway.

ORVMs on the other hand really do require to be heated and also need wipers.

Re: What are the most rarely used features in your car?

Suzuki S-Cross owner here...
Basically auto everything is not used by my family.

1. Auto Headlights - The system just isnt sensitive enough.
2. Auto Wipers - The system just isnt sensitive enough.
3. Auto Climate control - The system doesn't actually seem to do anything (or maybe my requirement is not met by the limited "auto" functionality
4. ICE navigation system, hate to say it but nothing beats google navigation.
5. Wired android auto. its a hit or a miss, doesnt work half the time and when it does decide to work, something as simple as a car restart disrupts the connection. Limited to bluetooth connectivity...

In fact, auto wipers are actually a nuisance, because Suzuki in their infinite wisdom, removed the transient operation function of wipers, when they added rain sensing wipers. Sometimes these wipers dont sense rain at all, and other times, they will wipe the windscreen dry enough that the rubber on the blades starts getting rough.

My Thar's 4x4 Transfer Case

When I was working on the Fuel Costs section of my ownership update, realised that I've used it only 6% of my ownership so far.

Intend to correct this though
