Does Fram makes Mobil 1 Oil Filter?

Went into Mobil 1 website to check out what Mobil 1 Oil Filter I have to use for my Honda Odyssey. Came out with the following results, does that means that Fram also makes Mobil 1 and Champion oil filters?

No ... they are just giving some cross-reference info of the Champion and FRAM filters that will also fit that car.

I believe the Mobil filters are Champ Lab's top tier filter offering.

That's strange, why would they recommend a competitor's product?

Champion Laboratories makes Mobil 1, K&N, and Royal Purple oil filters, along with about a million private-labels.

Now that Champion and FRAM are both owned by the same people, I expect to see more cross-pollination in future.

That makes sense.

Use the M1 oil filter up to 15k miles of use and let the engine benefit from the improved filtration that M1's offer over the cheaper competition.

That, too, but there are several other filter sites that give competitors' model numbers.

Me, I expect to see more "FRAMINAZATION" to their other filters!

Like the dreaded BCOD Ecore & paper endcap they sell to WalMart for the TLE!

I bet the Fram Ultra's are just as good as the latest Mobil 1 filters. I suspect the Fram Ultra's will usually sell for less.

Looks like we'll all be using Fram's before long.
