Vodka may work well as a deicer, but I'm wondering what it does to your paint. I think I'll stick with the stuff that's designed for the windshield washer. Oh, and drink the vodka!

Vodka? Jeez, in 2 years no one considered just going to the parts store and getting a bottle of Heet? Pretty sure it's just alcohol of one shape or another.
As far as worrying about vodka on paint, windshield washer fluid already has alcohol in it.

Some vinegar will work too if you don't mind the odor, but you can also just buy fluid that won't freeze in the winter unless you live deep in Siberia. I just picked some up last night after my stock fluid froze in the morning.
