Every Driver Needs to Know About These Handy Car Hacks

De-Frost Glass With a Potato

Potatoes can be used in a lot of different ways. You can fry, boil, mash, and even bake them. But did you know that you can also use potatoes to thaw out the glass in your car? You don't have to worry about having foggy or ice windows when you have a spare potato laying around. This thing can defrost your whole car with only a few wipes.

Cut a raw potato in half and wipe the skinless and starchy side over the glass. That's all you need to do. This will not only help the glass thaw right away, but it should also keep it from icing in the future.

Buy a Plug-In Electric Blanket

This plug-in electric blanket could save your life if you like going to the drive-in movie theater or have to watch your kids play soccer in the cold every weekend. You shouldn't use this while you're driving, but it could be great for times when you're parked in your car. These blankets are affordable and plug into your car, so they won't get chilly. Most electric car blankets come with a lengthy chord, so your cold soccer players in the back can use it when their game is over.
