Well holy cow I was not prepared for how many bugs get in my grill and on my windshield when I bought the gladiator lol. I clean the truck, drive home hear about 40 cracks of bugs splatting on the windsheild i keep up with wiper wash as best i can.

Are there any products or tips to keep around to clean the front grill / windshield which seem to get peppered non stop? bugs get hard to clean off with gas station squeegee

Yeah they are so square they all hit instead of deflecting. I ceramic coated mine to make cleaning easier. Best $50 ive spent so far. Still while it’s good it’s no miracle. I gotta wash the bugs off all the time this time of year in NC. Especially driving during twilight hours.

I swear these dragonflies in NC are magnitized to the headlights on the JT.

Yes, it's not just JTs that attract them; this is my JTR from a few years back:
