looks like it. Like I said. as of last year I have not tried them back. got tired of throwing away paper pleated filters long ago and went with what I know works. they may, for all I know, have started back to the floss. I know each time they changed, we, as a website and user groups all sent mail and email tot he companies letting them know our issues. worked at least once to get them to switch back. might have worked agian.. I'm not sure. i'm just no longer willing to go on a hunting expedition to spend 5$ to cut a filter open to check how the manufacturer feels this year about the composition of the filter media, since the fram screws on and works fine...

Chris you should check out Fleetfilter.com for WIX,Napa golds you would get a nice discount if you do that many services and know you'll be using a quality built filter.

I have looked at them. The guy I buy from actually is local, 18 miles away. I just call him up and put in a order. Very easy to work with. Last one I got 100 filters for $155. Picked up 12 for each of my mowers, 16 for my tractor, 12 for Ford F-150/Lincoln Aviator, 12 for my Titan, 6 for my neighbors Dmax, 6 for his Ford Tractor, and the rest were for boats. In that order I also got 8 air filters, 6 fuel filters, and 6 hydraulic filters plus a few other miscellaneous filters.

Just the Ford F-150 air filters were $15 each at Walmart. I had over $80 alone in air filters but got them for about $3 each from him.
