    I've often heard that stubbornness and opinionated are two traits that always come with one another. LOL! Motor Trend?? You MUST be kidding! They have been a biased publication since inception. They make their money from advertisements, not subscriptions. Subscriptions pay the postage...

    Again... in YOUR OPINION. Originally Posted By: kschachn Now you're just being silly. You might get away with making that argument about another brand, but Honda?

    New Bosch Premium (pics).

    Cool... Just installed one of these on my '14 Odyssey last week. Amazon's price right now is $6.56 with free shipping (if your total order is $35+). It felt and looked like a well made filter. We'll see how it performs. Thanks for the pics!
