Thats CYA from Ford to reduce liabilty if anything were to happen
There is actually something to it though. A strong blast of water into the groove between the top of the tailgate window and clamshell can potentially force dirty water under the window gasket and contaminate the viscous adhesive that holds the gasket in place. You’ll look in the rear view mirror later and see that gasket drooping. This may require the entire back window gasket to be replaced, since the dirt-contaminated sealant won’t hold anymore even if you push the gasket back up into place. Ask me how I know.

Thankfully they warrantied it.

They also recommend for you to be a giant if you are going to wash your Bronco.
Truth. I’m 6’5” and still need to stand on the side steps to do the roof.

Yes, but do you choose to rotate right or rotate left ...
Clearly you have it oriented where a swipe toward you will unroll a sufficient amount of TP. Otherwise, you have to spin it away from you and reach even further, risking some sort of spillage.

I have something for you here. Your father wanted you to have this when you were old enough, but your British uncle wouldn't allow it. He feared you might follow old Obi Wan Kleanholi on some damn fool idealistic crusade like your father did. It's your father's toilet paper. This is the weapon of a Jedi Wipe. Not as clumsy or British as a bidet, but an elegant solution for a more civilized age. For other a thousand generations, the Jedi Wipes were guardians of the banos, and keepers of the over-the-top method of toilet paper dispensary. Before the dark times, before the British and their fancy bidets.

Before Co-vid , there was .... THE FLU !
They had TP shortages and mass panic buying back then as well.
Then they invented immunization shots.

lol… okay but have you ever known of a corn cob lock?

Back to the OP, which way do you hold the cob big end / small end?

Such a simple thing? I've never encountered an issue with the brush, but I haven't used one in years. Perhaps, since people aren't as smart as you, you could spin the brush around whilst you high pressure soak you cat?

This thread made me chuckle today thinking about brushes being bad and deionized water. My '02 F-250 sits outside all winter in the PNW under pine trees and she is pretty crusty by spring. People see it and the first thing they ask is if it runs. Hell ya she runs! Did a redneck detail on her today. Spray with Simple Green...let sit 45 minutes....pressure wash! Oxford White is a winner. What good truck. Before and after.
