Not that its a real important or serious question but what wiper blade does everyone swear by?

Mine suck and I want to make sure the next set do not.

I just switched to the Bosch Icons. Although they don't list the TT as an application I use the 21-inch long version. Pretty happy so far, I've been in a couple of heavy downpours and they do a decent job as compared to the stock arms. The 3.2 wipers are lower profile than those on the earlier models. You can get those from TireRack for around $100, but the Icons do virtually the same for less $$.

Rain-X, kinda makes the wipers useless unless youre outcruising in a hurricane.

Other then that I think PIAA makes some nice silicone impregnated blades.

Rain-X has an additive that you can add to the wiper fluid? Anyone have experience with this? Seems to good to be true although applying rain-x other ways isn't difficult either.

I don't like rain-x, because as soon as you quit using it, or it starts to wear out, you get some pretty serious haze everytime the wipers make a pass.
