YES, THEY ARE $10.20. WOULD YOU LIKE THE INVOICE OR THE PHONE NUMBER? THE FACT THAT ALL DODGE DEALERS DONT SELL PARTS FOR THE SAME PRICE WOULD MAKE ME LOOK AROUND INSTEAD OF TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHO MAKES WHAT AND HOW GOOD IS IT. I DONT KNOW ABOUT YOU GUYS I SPENT AN AWFUL LOT OF MONEY ON A TRUCK I HOPE I WONT HAVE TO REPLACE SOON AND WHILE ITS IN WARRANTY ILL USE FACTORY PARTS. WHATS IN AN OIL FILTER AND WHO MAKES THEM IS A MYSTERY AND JUST BECAUSE A COMPANY THAT MAKES OE FILTERS MAKES YOUR DOESNT MEAN ITS THE SAME FILTER. WHEN AN ENGINE COULD COST $10,000.00 TO REPLACE AN EXTRA $5.00 WORTH OF INSURANCE THAT I WONT A PRODUCT ISSUE WHILE A WARRANTY CLAIM IS IN PROCESS IS JUST PEACE OF MIND.
Easy fig bella.......[:-]

Unlock the caps, turn the torque to traveling mode and grab a beer.

Use whatever filter you feel comfortable with. The post was only intended to let everybody know that a good filter was available at a good price. If you are more comfortable with OEM parts, then so be it; that's your business. I don't pay for your truck, so I couldn't care less what you use. But, there are better brands than others, just like oil.................just like fuel............just like air filters, etc.

The reason we look around at different parts and different manufacturers is for the very same reason you stated.....we all paid good money for our vehicles and like to put on quality parts.

If you are getting an OEM filter for $10.20 at the dealer, more power to ya. If you are comfortable with it, even better.

Enjoy.

How about you turn off the CAPS lock so that its easier to read your post.

FYI, many of us use Fleetguard filters becaue we can buy them Cheaper then what most Dodge dealers sell Mopar brand for. My self I would buy a Fleetguard filter over a cheap *** Mopar filter any day of the week and 3 times on Sunday even if it was $5.00 cheaper, IMHO anyway.

We now return you to our normal broadcast!
