Wiper Blades

Was wondering what brand/type of material you guys/gals like to use for your windshield wipers? I want to get a nice set, mine aren't lasting long for some reason. Didn't know if any of you had a preference on what a good blade is. guess it's kinda a bad time to be getting some since we're going into winter after all... thanks

I use the bosch blades , they work pretty good, but it seems too me that wiper blades now days dont last like they use too. I can remember hardly ever changing wiper blades, now your lucky too get 6 months out of them.

Ditto - bosch blades. On my last truck (Ford Superduty) I used wiper blades that were one size longer than OEM. I wonder can you do this with the Dodge trucks or will they rub?

i preferr the silicone blades, used to pick'm up dirt cheep, but now it looks like piaa is the only ones out there..
a tip to help rubber ones last longer... clean them every now and then... rubbing alcohol on a clean rag seems to work the best.

I have the Bosch blades too. No complaints here unless I use Rain-X. Then I get the chatter no matter what blades I have....
