I'm seeing a lot of opinions, but seems like still something of a consensus from many sites including Consumer Reports for the Rainx Latitude. Some love and hate for a bunch of choices too.

Clean windshield seems a big factor, so I am looking at Stoner Invisible Glass.

Cheap blades and Rain-X on the glass works for me. I've got some funky Anco "winter" blades on my truck right now since they were the only thing on the shelf aside from the 18 a piece Bosch junk when I needed blades. They wipe the window enough for me to see, that's all I really ask from a wiper blade.

I like ANCO, especially right now when they have their rebate. I bought 5 contour wiper blades for my vehicles and after rebate they cost me about $1.00 a piece! Rockauto.com has the best prices on wipers. At that price I replace them twice a year, they usually run the rebate deal both spring and fall.

I'm also a big fan of Rain-X, it makes any wiper work like a champ.

Wow, no love for the RainX Lats on here. I put them on both cars for last winter after reading that Consumer Reports article. They're still working with no streaks. I was just considering picking up two more sets for this coming winter.

It's about $20 / set if you play the discount coupon game at places like AAP. At once a year, I don't mind. Although playing the rebate game and getting ANCOs appears to be the best bang for the buck right now.

$18 a piece and it's still made in China.

Goodyear Assurance at Costco at $8, Made in USA.

I hate to admit it, because their tires are garbage and I've never had anything but heartache dealing with their so-called "customer service" people, but I agree; these blades are really good and they're a steal.

I just put these on my truck, and so far, they work great. I got them at Costco on a 'buy one, get one free' deal, so I thought it was worth giving them a shot. :thumbup:

I like that they are made in USA, and hope they hold up well... Otherwise, I've had great luck with OEM Delcos, they work great and last a long time. If these Goodyears don't hold up, I'll go back to Delco. I've had too much hit-or-miss with aftermarket wiper blades.
