I'm aligned with
pizzaguy on filter purchase. When I buy from an eBay or Amazon Seller, I never by more than 2 fleece filters. Can't see keeping them stored in my garage cabinets. Filters can be had from a wide variety of sources. And an oil change for me is every 2 years considering the miles I put on the car & driving style.
