Although many of you don't like the Anco Contours, the distributor I work for services over half of the shops and dealerships within a 30 mile radius, and the Contours are by far the most requested wiper.

We have a store in the mountain passes, and the sand and salt from the snow removal on the windshield kills wipers (you can burn through a set a month commuting across the pass), and we have many repeat customers coming back for the Contours. Maybe it's the climate you guys live in, but they're by far the favorite wiper of our shops, dealerships, and customers.

In my climate, wipers last one year. You replace them before the winter storms, then the summer heat bakes them, and then you have to replace them before winter storms come again. I haven't found a wiper that will last a solid season of weather other than the Contours.

I prefer the goodyear but still need to replace twice a year due to sun damage

I purchased Rain-X Latitudes for front and rear last month... very crappy wipers IMO. Don't get me wrong - they work - but I will not buy them again.

I had bought Bosch ones for my OBS and they squeaked so much. I wanted to go with rainX ones but here they are a waste so might just grab ones from Costco when I go grab new floor mats from there this weekend.
