In Washington state, spring rains plus pollen is like moving elmers paste, so to ensure there are no streaks from winter blunders I change them out. Then I get a set for pushing off bug guts all summer long. Then a Final set goes on at Hunting season. I average 18-23k a year. So if I change one I change them all.
Huh. Also in WA State, also average around the same mileage. Looking at your profile you're west of the mountains, as am I. Maybe you spend more time east of the mountains than I do (significantly more bugs over there)?

Definitely not my money, but I think if you got some PIAA Super Silicone wipers you would be easily good with one set for a full year.
Gotcha. Fair enough, and ya it's not a ton of money.
Don't start paying attention now! If you're happy with them, enjoy them!
Welp. I've cleaned my windshield and run my fingers along the wiper blade multiple times now and this streak isn't going away. Not impressed.
Is that for one or two?? Either way, for that price (I'll assume it's a pair) I think I'll give the Motorcraft ones another shot when mine are ready. I have been happy with them and the price is reasonable.
It’s for a pair. My factory blades squeak so badly, I’m willing to try something different.
I just now need to swap out my OEM factory ones. I picked the truck up December of 2021. I have about 24K on it. They are just recently leaving some slight streaks and causing my rain sensing to run at maximum anxiety more often than not. I plan on grabbing a new set today - just need to figure out what brand.@ccw You should be able to get a year out of them, IMO. I’m still rocking the factory oem ones - and that’s dealing snow, salt, and rain. They are just now beginning to show some signs of wear.
My wife, who sounds a bit different than @Modman ‘s wife, ends up running wipers down to metal without saying anything. Lol. Each time I drive her car I feel like a mechanic on a road test.“what? They still work - they are fine.”
Ot: @Modman whatcha getting built? *eyebrow flutter*
Right before we headed out to the Tour de Mont, I had my tires rotated at Discount Tire. While I was there they offered to put new wipers on for $13.99 a side. I said yes and surprisingly they've been great so far. I don't know what brand they use though.
I’m going back to PIAA Super Silicone. The Bosch Icon have been functional till now, but not exceptional. Looking like I’ll get about a year out of them compared to the 3+ I was getting out of the PIAA.
Cant look it up right now, but when I figure it out for my truck I’ll let you know. Almost certainly they have the right size, even if our trucks aren’t programmed into their wizard for whatever reason.
Sometimes the generic stuff can be fantastic!
So I'm 99% sure the PIAA Super Silicone, part # 95055, will fit. PIAA doesn't say they'll fit as it seems their application guide is stale, but I strongly doubt Ford has changed their wiper arms from 2018 (the last year of Super Duty on PIAA's guide) and 2022.
