I noticed that while I was looking at a car on a used lot the other day.

The filter is buried on the corolla. Drives me nuts.

I think I'm going to stock up on some wix filters on my next trip to the states. I can't believe how expensive the toyota filter is when it is so very very common. Its nearly twice the price as the dodge filter.

Ya reckon Dodge puts as high a quality into their filters as they do their vehicles? If so then you'd still end up buying 3 dodge filters per 1 toyota I reckon hahaha.

Its still the same filter material for all the oil filters by whatever manufacturer is building the filter. I don't get why a smaller more common filter is more expensive than a larger less common one.

Don't get me started on the air filters!
