    First Brands (Fram) bankruptcy

    One problem with your premise of it costs the most is just that. Fram at one time made quality products and that was not very long ago. When Jay Buckley (Motorking) was at Fram and a frequent visitor and poster here Fram had some pretty good filters and a very good price too. There are millions...

    If this was to me I know that Premium Guard makes the filter I was only stating that that Premium Guard and Prime Guard (Higjlinewarren) are not the same company. The filter names are so similar that some may get them confused.
