What filter do you use and why?

I use MC FL-820S's on the Taurus and just ordered a case and a half of NAPA (Wix) Gold's from FleetFilter for the Mazda.
 
Sometimes a Bosche, used a PureOne for 2 OCI spans. A brother BITOGer sold me a half-dozen L24458's for $20.00 awhile back, and the Stealer gave me 6 OEM Hyundai filters in return for a favorable survey on the sales effort (big effort, I built the car on Vehix, went down with the check two hours later). Have a couple of SDF-36s I bought on special from a local parts store that was "stuck" with them. 3 for $18.00 or thereabouts. They pile up, as does the oil.
 
Oh yeah..Why?
Because it doesn't really matter once you get past "crummies" like Frams and STs, which are adequate enough for a shortie OCI, but I don't want Fram for 50 miles, and I don't want a plastic basket center-tube for even 1.

I do believe the higher-cap filters like PureOnes and Amsoils stand out above the OEMs, Premium-Plus' and Bosche's. The really primo filters stay for 2 OCIs after they're drained out, they go right back on.
