Good windshield wiper fluid?

It's time for me to add some windshield washer fluid. What is the best one to get? I am in NC so we do get below freezing temps so I would like to have something that doesn't freeze. I searched the forums, but I didn't find anything on it.

Thanks

I use the orange Rain-x brand stuff. Cleans great and coats your glass with Rain-x for you.

I got the orange rain-x. It's good but if I use it when driving it sprays over the sunroof and also so the side windows. When it gets on the rubber it squeaks when the window goes up or down. Same thing with the sunroof. When I tilt the roof I hear squeaking noise. It stays there for a week or two. If I clean it up the noise is gone. So that rain-x coat sticks around. I just have to be careful now not to use the washers while driving.

+1 to the Rain-X. I've used it for years. The orange stuff is for the winter and can handle sub-zero temperatures (around 25 degrees (F) below zero, IIRC). I use the green Rain-X during the spring, summer, and fall.

Half wal-mart brand cheap stuff, half Everclear (yes, the alcohol). Has the benefits of not freezing and gives you a reason for smelling like a bar if you're pulled over

Or the rain-x stuff works too...

I just realized I had blue washer fluid dried up all the way across the car and down the c-pilar on my coupe... anyway to stop this? anyway to adjust the sprayer or should I just use clear fluid or should I just man up and clean it off my c-pilars every time
