Finally got around to getting new wipers for the boy today. Went with the Bosch. $30 each but great reviews. The Rainx blades had trash reviews. Apparently they leave white streaks. Glad I checked

So for the first time since I've owned the truck, I won't have mismatched wipers lol

I've have Bosch wipers on my GTI and they work great and last a long time.

Just installed them actually. Did a quick misting and seems fine.

I'm trying to think back now... when I was a kid I worked for Lexmark and HP repairing laser printers. We had a rubber roller restorer chemical for the wheels that picked up the paper but I can't remember the chemical name.

For anyone reading, a rubber restorer might be a good spring maintenance item to use on blades.

I went with rainx on my recent wiper blades purchase for the first time ever. I probably could have gone with the cheapest set I could find and they would've performed just as good or better. I'm very disappointed. I won't be using any rainx wipers in the future

I bet you didn't know the original Jeep Cherokee was this good. They were trendy at the time and my dad made fun of trendy things so I thought they were junk. But they are actually a very well engineered machine. The unibody construction was a game changer

I don't think anybody here has ever discredited the Cherokee. But the video clearly has an agenda. Comparing the Cherokee to a Blazer is so off base. Yes I know the S10 Blazer was mentioned. The better comparisons would have been the Izuzu Rodeo or the Nissan Pathfinder.

Sadly today none of us can afford one, so we don't have an opinion anymore lol
