My car is cooler than yours
I noticed the following behavior in my car yesterday: If I use the windshield washer while the windshield defroster is on, the fan speed (and therefore the heat applied to the front window) increases to max for several seconds during and afterwards. This is nice because it helps to stem the inevitable freezing of a thin layer of windshield washer fluid to my windshield during especially cold driving.
Pedantic though it may be, these are the things that endure one to a seemingly benign object like a car.
