Default What brand O2's are ya'll running??

I've been looking around....Vatozone has the Bosch O2's, but some people swear that Bosch electronics are crap....SO.......

I've seen Motorcraft ($$$), Bosch and Denso ($)...... What are you guys running and how long have you had them?

EDIT: Let's make this a poll, but please reply as to why you went w/ what you did.......

I run Bosch because thats what Auto Zone had, I know nothing about o2 sensors, so I hope to learn something too.

There may not be much difference, that's why I wanted to see what everyone had. The whole Bosch making crappy electronics is an opinion of a friend (who know his stuff), but I know a lot of people that haven't had problems w/ them....who knows..........

I found a site that has Denso's for 30 each, shipped, but I don't know anyone that's ever run them.....

i think they are all comparable, i too have heard bosch electronics aren't the greatest but o2's aren't very technically involved so theres not much they can screw up in manufacturing them...

I believe that Bosch made the sensors for Ford. If you look at your old ones I think they have Bosch stamped on them along with the Ford P/N.
