First oil change on my ram 1500 is coming up soon, and Im also ordering some cabin filters for it too.
Yes, the Fram CQ's are very very good. The Red is a fantastic filter, easily the best cheap filter around, and it does have metal end caps. Very close to, if not the same as, the pre-ecore AC Delco classics.
The CQ Blue is better than anything Wix makes. Although Motorking said it's not just a reboxed M1, it's very close, and still a great filter. Overpriced at regular AAP retail, they became a bargain when using AAP's promo codes, and the Rock Auto clearance makes them a good buy. But don't buy more than you can use in a few years.
Now if only Fram would sell these under their own name! Because they are far better than the OCOD and TG!
