But it's the work truck so I could care less. I use rain-x ones.

I literally have the OEM blades on my Scout. I'm too lazy to buy a replacement set and cut them down to fit the thing. 10" blades...I know right, tiny.

 

[SHOmuff]

Bosch Icons are good shit.

 

[99PONTIACGP]

The cheap ones from Murrays are NOT good...dont buy those.

 

[Fish]

RainX over here as well.

I like the RainX Latitude wipers too. Advance Auto had buy one, get the second 50% off.

 

[transmaxed]

I have Rain-x Latitudes on both of my cars. I like them on both cars... but they were expensive wipers..... $20 a pop.

I have tried cheap to expensive over the years. Even the expensive ones only last so long. The ozone kills them. As does the ice in the winter.

Buy cheap ones and use rubbing alcohol to wipe them clean them from time to time. When they crack or start to preform crappy replace them for what ever is on sale. Still cheaper annually to buy a couple of cheap sets.

Also the blade holders that are wrapped are a pita too. They still get ice over them and hinder performance. But the main issue is they act like a sail when your on the highway. The wind picks them up off the windshield.

Get the good ones from NAPA, they worked really well.

 

[Oreif]

Tried Rain-X latitudes - Work good for a short time then they suck.
Bosch Icons - Excellent wiper blade, last long time good for rain and snow. I used these on all my vehicles.

Also for the "bench racers"
adds like 25 whp by reducing the coefficient drag by .002!

My last pair that I bought were these Anco blade type wipers that were supposedly super awesome. They lasted maybe 4 months before they started leaving a HUGE smudge through the middle of the arc. They were like $20 a piece too, however I got them on sale buy one get one. Now I have the normal Rain-x and they are working MUCH better, however the windshield on my car is all messed up, with little bits like it was in a bad hail storm or something. I might just have to say a followed a truck and a bunch of gravel hit the windshield so insurance will pay for a new one.

Cheapest Ancos, I think they're the 3100 series. They did really good in consumer reports, and the Rain-X Latitude also did really good as well. I use the Ancos, you can find them at K-Mart, I'm not sure what other places carry the Ancos.
