Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosed technology comprise a device for removing precipitation from the top of a vehicle. The device is mounted on the top of a vehicle and comprises a blade operatively connected to first and second side rails, the side rails adapted for fixed engagement with an upper portion or top of a vehicle, the blade configured to move along the rails. In this manner, the blade, as it moves along the top of a vehicle, removes the ice, snow, and/or debris on the vehicle. The vehicle may be a truck, trailer, sport utility vehicle (SUV), minivan, van, train, or the like. The blade may be moved along the rails using a configuration of sprockets and chains, cables and pulleys, and/or racks and pinions. The device may be powered by a motor or operated manually.
