Pricing on windshield wipers is utterly ridiculous.

Agreed, but the Bosch Icons are worth the cost compared to buying several sets of cheaper ones. A bit of platten cleaner occasionally keeps them going for me.

I buy the Aero's on Amazon. They always last me a year. A friend of a friend was liquidating his store, however, and I bought a few ANCO's from him for a dollar a piece - they don't last as long though.

Just look at the ratings... these are decent, and well priced.

Mika decided to wake me up to go outside.
Nice sunrise too!



I wish I could fall back asleep that easy.
Pics took less than 2 minutes.

I'll have to look at that when they start wearing.

Also do not buy Rain-X Expert Fit wipers. They are garbage! They were noisy from day one and then the mount broke just from dragging a wash sponge over it.

The Rain-X brand has gone waaaay downhill. Their wipers used to be really good.

That white Mustang is right by me.
I run the Sterling Shelby Crime news group.
