I get to walk through the wix plants pretty often, here in GASTONIA and it is LOUD! awesome watching all the machines folding elements, and gluing filters and painting cans, etc... anyway, I try to use wix when I can.

No OEM?
What about OEM or MANN? (I'm pretty sure I've bought a MANN air filter before - right?)

Wix was $13 with tax. OEM is about same. Puralator was $11? I think.
WIX is oem for NAPA, I knoe but had forgetton that. I can't compare the OEM as I havent stuck one in yet, I would expect it to be closer to WIX. WIX is the #1 in NASCAR for a reason.....

Mahle is definitely the winner. No pics but I just pulled an ancient one from our new wagon. There are atleast 2x the number of folds of the wix.

I always thought that Mann filters were OEM for MB. In fact their part number is on the air cleaners.

1) You don't have to order cases from www.fleetfilter.com - you can order individually and as many/few as you'd like.
2) Wix has about 2000 part numbers, www.fleetfilter.com has about 1500 listed. The most common ones are on there, the least common ones are not. We may still have them in stock, even though they're not on the site. If we see a part number moving, we put it on the site. You can email sales@fleetfilter.com and ask questions like "do you have this?" and "can you get it?"
