jk_636 - Congrats. ONE filter didn't tear. Hopefully this trend continues. But people will get (and already are) tired of your arrogance. I'll be cutting the last of my P1s that were just taken out of service soon. I'll be sure to post BOTH good and bad ones. I'm sure I'll hear from you soon.
Zee - While I'm on your side, neither of these two are ever going to get it through their heads that what they say is not 100% correct. It's a lost cause. They're not going to change.
Your Fram references, while probably justifiable, don't help.
Please don't take this the wrong way, like I said I'm on your side here, but they are clowns. You have to treat them like one.
P.S. jk_636 and cpt - When and if i post a good filter from my last batch (and I have posted good ones before) there will be your proof that I'm not opening them incorrectly.
I am not associated with captain Barkley in any way, nor do I share his opinion on the improper cutting of filters.
When a filter tears on here 700 posts on why they are terrible and that is considered socially acceptable. When a filter doesn't tear, I engage in friendly discourse and congratulate the OP on cutting and posting a good filter. But somehow I'm the jerk eh? I swear this site is being ran by "the competition" more and more each day.
Giving factual accounts and experiences about certain products (whether it be oil, filters, fuels etc). Is what this forum is designed for. You dismiss this as arrogance, but arrogance is when confidence meets experience. If someone does not like my ideas, feel free to attempt to refute them. I will reserve the same aforementioned right.
Your post could not be more hypocritical. Your krony insists on juvenile discussion win hollow talking points. If yoi were looking for annoying, you found it.
So perhaps you should find someone else to call a clown, because as of now your justification is hinged upon disagreement with your associate, and tha is as entertaining as it is sad.
I didn't say your mother wears army boots, I said this was a good looking filter. Now let's get back on topic.
