I purchased a set of new ones because they were old and brittle and one rubber has already split.

One of the three (2 front 1 back) I had to break apart with a pipe wrench to get it off because it was completely stuck.

I just realized the other day that I've only replaced the wipers on my truck once - when I bought it six years ago - and never since. They're still perfectly fine.

Probably has something to do with keeping it in a garage tent so it's mostly protected from the sun and freezing. I bet ice is what destroys them the most - especially everything you do to de-ice them besides just melting it.
