I gave away several of those wix & Bosch filters when I sold the neon.
Given those choices though, if buying today,put me down as another vote for Wix.
It looks like I can get that motorcraft filter on Rockauto.
True enough, they have it for $3.88, but how much for shipping? I recently bought a batch of 5 filters from them, and the cheapest Shipping option was around $8.( which was more than all 5 filters...)
$6.47 on Amazon (prime eligible)
$5.99 Special order @ o'reilly
$8.33 @ my local Ford Dealer
etc........
or the Fl400s is about $3.49 or so @ every wallyworld in the country.... (ouch! $7.33 @ the Ford Dealer)
but I'd Still Rather run a WIX....
Yeah, shipping is always the killer on Rockauto. But this time around I've already added $336 worth of parts (timing belt kit, brake pads, rotors, wipers) to my cart so shipping shouldn't be too bad.
Which is why I've decided to go with the FRAM Ultra. The Wix filter wants to ship from a different shipping location (C), I've already got items shipping from A & B. Luckily, the FRAM is shipping from location A, so i'll save some money there.
I'll run the FRAM Ultra for 2 OCI's.
