Can you recommend a good snow brush/snow scraper to keep in the vehicle?

Hi all,

Recently moved to a state that has an actual winter. We don’t get a ton of snow, but I’d guess I need to snow brush my car 10-14 days per year.

Can anyone recommend a good snow brush/snow scraper that fits nicely in the cab?

Thanks!

I use an extendable paint roller handle with a soft bristle brush for snow removal.
I also use a Brass Edged Ice scraper for the windows. Be careful around your wipers.
You could cut right through them in a split second. I can also change the brush for
one to wash the roof too.

I use this. Snow broom on one end and scraper on the other. Both ends are removable if you want something small. Don't use a brush on your paint. The foam is less harmful though I still try not to actually touch the paint. Extends to 55" which is long enough and I'm only 5'3.

You got me thinking as I just got my truck and need one too. Did a bit of searching on Amazon and this looks like the best option I saw:

True Temper ABTT5212 Telescoping Scratch-Free Snow Brush with End Scraper and Cushioned Grip, 52-Inch https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B06X1CQHGN/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_fabc_ATgdGb94MX856
My local hardware store has them for $25 and it looks OK. I opted for the Birdrock one above because it was a bit longer and I can remove the scraper and use it like a hand scraper.

I can stick mine in the DU-HA or in the Bed tucked up under the bed rail.

Use a broom. I live where it snows all the time. If I have to brush off in the driveway I just use a broom. Other than that I keep a small handheld in my vehicles to clear the windows/doors no need to overthink this or get anything too big.

Make sure you clean the snow away from the roof and door opening BEFORE opening. I've had a wet drivers seat before
