I know various companies make winter wiper blades (such as Trico).
Does anyone know if these will resist sticking? If so, that would
probably be a good choice. Otherwise, perhaps you could keep a supply
of old newspapers in the truck... If you folded a sheet a few times
lengthwise, and put one under each wiper, that might achieve the
results you're looking for. (Although, now that I think about it,
its possible that the newspaper would become soaked and the whole
mess would freeze to the windshield. This probably wouldn't be a problem
if it was cold enough to keep the snow from melting though.
