Hopefully this isn't bad news for any of Fram's local (Greenville, OH) employees-hopefully Jay doesn't have to brush up on his Spanish!

There is so much of this^ IMO we had a "exec" that just stopped and said, "I want to see the other side of the plant from this spot!" pointing in that direction. and they turned 1/8 of a mile, 41 lines moved 90* so you can see the other side!
BTW I guess they can SHUT DOWN FRAM PLANT AND have Champ Labs build their filters!!!!!

I hope they don't mess up the Ultra by trying to cheapen it somehow. Guess time will tell how this well all play out with the products.
