First off why are you looking at fram? Advance Auto has Purolator Fuel Filters for $13.99. So theres your "decent" price.

I found out a couple months ago that AutoZone is a rip off when buying fuel fitlers for our trucks lol.

Kindof makes sense to spend the 60 bux for a Racor....

Its nuts.

Hey I just bought 2 198 bulbs for 3.99... what a rip.

That's where i get my fuel filters for both trucks. It's the only place that hasn't doubled their prices in the past year or so, and i've told them that. They said "we plan to keep it that way" I guess time will tell.

you think thats bad? call advance auto, tell them you have an 05 ford 6.0 and need a fuel filter, and sit down before he gives you the price!

 

[Brooklyn Tow]

There's gonna be a run on the Purolator 6.5 filters and the price is gonna skyrocket.

Yeah, but 6.0 guys spend more money on engine rebuilds or head gasket replacements anyways so it doesn't hurt their pockets much ):h

 

[blowinsmoke99stroke]

not if you build it right the first time!
