Anyone tried silicone wiper blades on their truck. do they last longer?

Triple edge from wally world, lifetime gurantee, and I've NEVER had any problems with them. I used them on my 4X4 when mudding, and on the rest of my vehicles. Good stuff

here is a discussion on another board link

I have used Rain-X for 16 years, and for highway driving it is great. However, I think it results in premature blade failure, probably due to dryness.

"lifetime guarantee", they didn't last any longer (actually they ripped fairly quick, but they did squeegee the window fairly well) after you have gone through the time, trouble, and expense to send the broken blade back to the company, you are better off purchasing a new blade (your are going to need it anyway while the manufacturer processes your claim). I have tried most of them, including the silicone and triple edge.

My current pair (for the past 8 months) has been a pair of Michelin's (they manufacture good tires so I thought I would give their blades a try). I make certain to clean off the blade, when I clean the window, and then remove and rotate the blade when I start to see streaks (usually in the area where the spring presses against the blade).

I have rainx on the f150, don't last but about eight months also, but they don't make as much noise as some. Put the Michelins on the wifes Toy Solara, they seem to do fine.

I too have tried them all. I just don't think they last as long as they used to.
