You can also use 2 half drink credits on a refill. I buy the large fountain soda and make sure they put the yellow tape on it. When its empty you can refill it hand them your card and tell them you want to use your credits for the refill.

Contrary to popular belief Gasoline is FUEL, as is Diesel. You can FUEL up any type of vehicle. FUEL is what makes it run, be it gas, diesel, butane, or even electricity.

So my question is, are they worth the extra money?

I dunno. It might just be me, but the Sprinter windshield seems to be very hard on wiper blades, where the blades become worn out and nearly useless after just 2 or 3 months. The Rain-X blades seem to last longer than the others I've tried. Regardless of how long they last, though, they work well, cling to the glass, and wipe the water away.

The Michelin Symphony blades, for my Sprinter at least, were worse than useless, leaving an up-wiped swath right in front of my eyes. And that flexible arm that's supposed to be so good in snow became frozen and very inflexible when it got cold with a little ice on them, to the point where only the tips of either end would touch the windshield, and the other 22-odd inches rode just slightly above the glass. It was like having no blades at all. Even if the Rain-X blades only last two months, as long as they give me a clear view while they last, that's all I'm after. The Michelins were crap from Day-One.

I've heard others rave about the Michelins. YMMV.

Mt son swears by the Rain-X blades, but he also thinks Ford pick-ups are great.

I just don't know where I went wrong.

In THIS instance, this thread, and Flying J's site, FUEL refers to Diesel Fuel......

in general discussions, you would be correct.....

I run a 2000 dodge van and 3 months is about all I get from wiper blades no matter what brand it is. I dont believe I ever tried the Rain-X blades, but I will try them now and see how long they last.

Autozone never seems to have the brand of Mobil 1 that I want to purchase.

Walmart always seems to have it in stock and they have Rain-X products too!

Probably why I have never gotten the "Zone Card".

I like Advance Auto Parts because they stock AC oil filters.
