OK, I will be the first to admit I am one of many on this board that simply dispises FRAM oil filters. I'm talking about the orange cannister types. While it may be argued that they work and filter well, I just can't swallow cardboard in my filter for the price they charge.
Now, with that being said - what do you all think of the FRAM cartridge filters (type of filter w/o a metal can - just the filter media that drops in)?? I went to pick up a filter for my car and compared the STP, AC and Fram. I was actually impressed at how the FRAM looked. Plus, it was the only filter individually sealed in plastic in the box. Now, at $11 it was more expensive than the others.
My question is this - since this is a cartridge filter so no can with cardboard endcaps - would you use it? How is the filter media?
I actually, for the 1st time, considered using a FRAM like this one.
