    They had a good sale on PP awhile back, I bought all they had for $2.99 a qt (was $6.99 i think).

    I guess I haven't noticed how expensive RP's gotten. Whats the normal price for RP up to anyways?

    I beleive what was trying to be said about the Fram filter is that they use a poor glue at the bottom of the filter. The filter element detachs. That allows oil to go around filter and back into the oiling system, often. Fram really is a poor filter, strictly for the reason. AC Delco, M1, K&N are all good filters that do not have the problem stated above.

    Correct if wrong.
