This is my first year with the Uplander. Now we have snow & wet roads. The aerodynamics of the Uplander causes a low pressure area around the back & sucks up tons of dirt & grit onto the rear window. I know i can use rear windshield washers but 1-2 minutes later it's covered again. Any solution? I looked for rear spoilers but can't find any. tia
Uplander - Rear Window

Don't drive it on wet days. There is no real solution. Spoilers don't do anything worthwhile. Most vehicles with steep rear angles and rear windows get crappy.
What I do to help keep mine clean is to wash it REAL well. Then apply about three coats of rain-X. It doesn't keep the crap from getting on the glass but it does allow it to come off easier. Also don't use the rear defroster if possible. It just bakes the crud on.
Leave teh window open?
