Approximately 2 years ago AAP had both on sale, so I put a pair of the Trico on my Taurus and a pair of the Rain-X on the wife's DD. Although we have a rainy season (lots of rain this past spring) here in SW GA, conditions are pretty easy on blades.
Although both are expensive, they work well - don't streak, and clear the windshields. However, last month the Rain-X blades started streaking a bit and squeaking loudly. The rubber is hard and starting to pit.
The Tricos are fine, so I replaced the Rain-X with a set of NeoForms. No sale on NeoForms at AAP, but I used the ES123 code and got three blades for $36.97. If I get two years out of them, it works out to a little over $6/year.
Although I'm going with the NeoForms over the Latitudes, the latter aren't bad at all and give a good service life for the money.
Anyone else like the NeoForms? I'm curious about how they hold up to snow and ice.
