Lol ,,,,
This always gets funny to me,,,,,,I laugh every time I see a post like this !
I have an old Toyota pickup built in Van Nuys California ,,,,,94 model,,,,it has 538,000 + miles .
I put all of those miles on it !
I drive currently a 2000 Accord,,,,,,it has 421,000 + miles on it ,,,,,,I put the last 125,000 on it myself after I purchased it from my daughter .
Runs like a champ,,,,the truck too !
I service them myself,,,,,oil and filters !
These vehicles have been run hard on the interstate,,,,,always at the max of the speed limit,,,if not a little more,,,,lol .
The things they have in common are Fram filters and Valvoline oil .
I use Pennzoil in the accord now,,,,,I use 5W20 ,,,,it gets a little better mileage and has a little more power .
None of these vehicles have ever had a bearing problem or internal component issue,,,,,none use any oil between changes either !
Use whichever filter you choose ,,,,,most are pretty good .
But I think I have real world experience in my examples,,,,and i don’t work for an oil company or a filter business .
I’m not pushing one over the other.
I don’t care really,,,I just try to make my own decisions and learn from them .
A lot of good oils,,,,and filters,,to choose from ,,,most are perfectly fine !
Don’t believe everything you read on the internet,,,,or even the videos,,,,someone might be leading you to believe that the sky is falling.
A good con man works at his craft,,,,he can make you believe anything !
