Was at Advanced Auto yesterday. Was surprised to see Mobil 1 & K&N filters priced at $12-14 while PureOne filters were at $7. I have been getting Carquest Blue/Wix premiums for around $5 and Denso for $3. I think I will stick with these.

Good filters high priced yes one just needs to use it on extended drains to get the benefits of the price.

You can't go wrong with DENSO filters for $3. Are they the blue "First Time Fit" (FTF) aftermarket ones? What part number?
I've been using DENSO FTF 150-1010 filters on my Nissan and have cut a few open. (See here.) They're high-quality filters and I like using them since my brother works for the company.

I wish Amsoil would have an internet sale price tomorrow!!
DENSO for $3!! They are excellent filters. Can go the distance too. I would load up on those.
Yes they are the First Time Fit Denso filters that I bought from Carquest. It is goin in my Odyssey for a 7500 mile OCI with Pennzoil Platinum or Pennzoil Ultra. Should I pick more up at that price? I can get Carquest Red filters for $1.79 a piece or Blues for $5.29. What would you go with?

At $3 per filter, I would pick some more up. That's a really, really good price for a very good filter.
A Carquest Blue is essentially a WIX or NAPA Gold, correct? If I'm not mistaken, the Carquest Blue / WIX / NAPA Gold have thread-end bypasses and the result is slightly less filtering media. Nonetheless, they too are very good filters.

If filter price is a strong consideration, Pronto makes a great filter for $2.
