I'll have to buy a few B7422 filters for my Chevys to add to my collection. They mostly seem to be available from Truck parts stores. I'm getting a few from Granger.

I think most of us here look for reasons to buy one product over another. I like the price, that it’s made in the USA, it’s red, it’s a bit uncommon.
Like reasons for me I do not want the current NAPA filters. They are made in China and Vietnam. I’m ethnicity mostly Chinese but I am an American. I prefer, though hard to find, US made products.
 
I’ve been buying them from RA. Good deal if you buy the right quantity to limit the shipping Cost per filter. I think I can get up to 6 filters in one order and it ships for the same cost as 1. It seems to vary though…

New Amsoil filters may be coming out of the Champion Labs factory that PGI bought, don't know when, but probably soon.
 
Just an idea, but although Fleetpride and Truckpro have merged, they often still have separate locations in many markets. However, I have noticed that while Fleetpride locations in a given market tend to keep consistent prices from store to store, Truckpro locations seem to have substantially different prices from store to store. That rewards shopping around if you are so inclined. Both usually carry the popular sizes of Baldwin and Donaldson filters. Some locations of each are still clearancing out their equivalent Fleetguard filters really cheaply, but those are getting scarce.
By way of example, in the greater Atlanta-Chattanooga metro area, I think there are a total of 6 or 7 Fleetpride and Truckpro locations, and the Fleetpride locations tend to be really similar to each other price-wise, while the Truckpro locations can be different by 2 to 4 dollars for a given item.

Try FleetPride. They sell HD truck parts. Most Peterbilt dealerships carry Baldwin.
