This is a Microguard taken of my son's 2000 ford focus zx3. He ran the filter several months, I don't know the mileage. I think the oil is castrol 5w20. He primarily drives a lot of short trips to and from work, but not very much hiway driving. I messed up the bottom of the filter element a little getting it out. I thought this filter is very well made, and held up well. The base plate is very thick and sturdy, and the rest of it was impressive to me. I would run these without any reservations.
