OEM Wipers Not Cutting It — Best Upgrade?

[Area51BS]

No issues with OEM 2022. However I treat my glass with Griots ceramic 3in1 spray wax.

The Scrubblade Wipers seem to be popular. Though, I haven't tried them. I'm still on my OEM blades (MY'23 OBX).

Trico or Anco has always worked well - As for retailers, I will get them from Rock Auto as they sell wiper blades for FAR less than any retailer, both brick and mortar or Amazon....even when you factor in shipping. I just make sure I am getting my order from the same warehouse so I don't get doubled up on the shipping charges and will order blades for all my vehicles at the same time for the same reason.

I've had good luck with NAPA blades...our local store does 30% off every 2nd Sat before 9am.

I bought a spare set of OEM blades when we bought our truck back in '21. About 85K kms later and I have yet to put them on. Original ones still working great,

Still rocking factory on mine, but when the time comes I’ll likely go with my usual.

Cheap and effective - HELLA off rockauto.

Over the top but amazing - PIAA with ceramic wipes. Ran these on my Ranger and previous Subarus. Absolute game changers in the rain.

No rain or bugs here, so my 3y/o original wiper blades are PRISTINE

I used Bosch on my vehicles when I lived in North Carolina. Not only cleared water and muck better but did not dry out as fast over time.

I literally just installed Rain-X Silicone Endura's on the Bronco this morning. I have had very good luck with them in the past both in performance and longevity. A quick change of adapters and they clipped right into place. I also filled the washer fluid reservoir with Prestone Bug Wash windshield washer fluid.

Whatever Costco sells, if they ain't got it, you don't need it.

I’ve got Bosch and they’ve worked pretty well. That being said I had a set of O’Reilly Auto Parts house brand blades that worked fantastic on my F-150 and were cheap with their regular specials.

I bought a set of scrubblades last year, so they’ve seen all four seasons of use. They were easy to install. I found that they clean great and really do remove bug residue pretty well. Unfortunately they seem like they are in need of replacing already. So durability seems to be the trade off.

As a new Bronco owner, this was honestly my biggest disappointment. I expected the stock blades to be strong enough to handle heavy trail mud, but they just don’t cut it... t makes no sense

Im in the same bout. When it snows it leaves streakes everywhere and doesn’t even get rid of the snow. Worst blades ever. I honestly couldn’t believe it. And it happens every time

I have been quite happy with scrubblades and install was very straight forward. These cut through the BS snow storm we had about 4 weeks ago. They are smooth and make no noise when wiping. I think you can get them through Walmart too but here’s the direct link.

I'm running the Bosch Icons. But I don't think they have one for the rear, will probably have to go OEM.
