    I dunno about that. I have had shitty ones, and those Bosch or RainX ones are a bit nicer.

    No.

    Especially in Colorado... the elements (both winter and summer) will wreak havoc on the wipers and shorten their lifespan and efficacy.

    You'll get better performance out of changing $10 wipers out 2-3 times a year than $25 wipers twice a year.

    100% worth it.


    2.5 years and 70K miles and my expensive wiper blades are still rocking.

    Nice.

    My experience has always been the opposite.

    What blades are you using?

    My GF uses that ultra soft Charmin. It's like using Egyptian cotton hand towels.

    I do not like it. I'm used to the more manly industrial type in my house.

    Have you tried the stuff infused with aloe? It's life changing.

    Pfft.

    You want life changing? I used to have a diaper wipe warmer on the lid of my toilet tank.

    Prewarmed wipes? You feel like royalty.

    Unfortunately the warmer broke a few years ago.

    Instant review!

    BFG KO2s coupled with Toyota Highlanders are fucking awesome.

    upload_2017-12-21_10-20-54.jpg

    I pulled 3 cars and 2 4wd trucks out from blocking major roadways this morning. One of those trucks may or may not have been equipped with Duracraps.

    Time for steel bumpers and a winch, can't forget the snorkel.
