    Default Wiper blades that don't suck?

    Anyone have a good 20" blade recommendation for serious winter conditions? Currently have RainX Latitude that are good above freezing but the rubber gets hard in colder temps and totally sucks. Over the years we've tried Bosch and others. Seems like they all have sucked no matter the price. Online reviews are untrustworthy these days. Ever tried the SureWipe add-on springs? Have to cross Wyoming on I-80 again soon and it's usually brutal this time of year.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.

    You want the best, get Silicone wiper blades ... they'll last forever. Downside is they're real expensive.

    I just replace them often. I have also found that windshield washer fluid with Ran X helps a lot.

    All wiper blades suck in the winter, especially if they get covered with snow or ice.

    Rather than seek the holy grail of wiper blades I just try and toss a new set on every October and call it good.

    Bosch Icons. Run them on my truck and change them 2x year.

    Trucks sits outside 24x7x365.

    Shop around. Last sets I bought on ebay from PEP Bros cheap. Like half price cheap.
