? on oil fitters....

[CycloneFE]

Frank,

Thank you for starting this thread, oil filters are very essential to all of our vehicles.

My feelings are this, I have to maintain my truck, the wife's Jeep, the race car, one collector car, a compact tractor, a riding lawn mower, a chain saw and weedeater. Filters alone are tough to find in many of the "low cost" stores. I use a local automotive parts house that can get ALL of my filters, plugs, and many other maintenance related items. They used to carry Wix and I really liked them, but have recently switched to Hastings as their preffered brand. Just a general feeling it is not quite the filter, but I have seen no serious issues yet. After doing this for several years they know me by name and I can call and order the parts in advance to pick up as needed. It runs slightly more for the total, but I make one trip and get everything at one time. I also like helping my local parts house stay in business. Just my thoughts.
