Mix a splash of white ammonia into roughly a quart of water. Soak a rag and wipe onto the window. Take a clean rag to dry. Works like a charm.

On the inside of the windows, I've typically used Windex and then wipe with Newspaper. I sounds crazy but something in the newspaper helps reduce streaks.
This is scientifically proven.

Are you talking about the outside of the glass or the inside?

I have streaky inside glass. Assumed it was off gassing from new materials. Hard to find newspaper these days to use as a cloth to minimize streaks.
They are tough to clean in general, both inside and outside, but the bigger issue is inside for sure....same issues on my R1T, I have to 'clean' the windshield 3-4 times before I can really get it to look right

My outside windows clean very well BUT the interior, especially windshield, has constant streaks - even with heavy elbow grease & micro fiber. I've always used one wet and one dry shop towel on all my vehicles, which has worked perfectly. Not so with the R1T.

I think the OEM wipers are probably either old stock or just garbage. Mine cause a lot of streaking. I keep forgetting to find replacements
Did we ever figure out replacement wiper blades? It's become squeaky wiper season in the PNW...
