Drove to work in the rain yesterday, which was much more sporty given the wiper blade isn't touching the glass in the middle which puts an unwiped streak at eye level... and it's dark out.
After work it was still raining, so went straight to the O'rielly auto parts store in town. So.... when did wiper blades start costing $26 each? Most of them don't have the bayonet connector, some may but you'll need to open the packaging to find out, and others do, but seriously, $26 each? I was about to just suck it up and pay, but decided to try Napa a mile farther down the road... in the rain.
Walked in the Napa and right there by the door are 16" wiper blades with the bayonet connector already installed, and they're $7.50. Walked out and had them on the truck in two minutes tops.
