Where is the cheapest place to buy your fuel and oil filters?

Also what oil are most of you guys running? Brand wise?

I live in Florida so 15-40 is a good weight I think but just curious about the brand.

What brand filters are ok to use as well?

Thanks for the help..

oooo ooo rielles (spelling ) auto parts has motorcraft fuel filters for under 45 for the pair fuel filter
I get my oil filters for 11 from oil guard, only because i get my oil guard bypass from them as well, not sure who makes the oil guard factory filter, buts its 1/2 the price of the wix, MC or frams

I am running Motorcraft fuel filters in my 7.3L PSD. And running a Pennzoil oil filter. I am running Shell Rotella 15-40 I live in Texas and drive 200 miles aday. I have had no problems. I am thinking about running Royal Purple Syntheic, but have to put a post to see what people say.

its been awhile, but i bought a bunch of filters from
FLEETFILTER.com

Ive got filter sitting on the shelf, even bought my coolant
filterd from 'em...good bunch of guys, if theres a problem theyll
work w/ you or refund every dime. (ive never had an issue).

i run conventional rotella, purchased on the cheap, from costco...
2 cases (12gallons, nets me 3+ oil changes) for less
than the dealer wants for a SINGLE oil change.

Fleet filters has a good site.

The prices seem almost to good to be true.

BTW, will 06 filters fit on an 07 6.0 PSD?

Not too good to be true...ive bought from them
more than once and ive never had an issue.

buy a few, enough fill a box & i think they ship it for
free, confirm that the fuel filters have the outter covering
on 'em & that the filters are to spec. (there was a change
to the inner core of the oil filters that made some folks
nervous).

when i 1st bought from 'em i discovered that i could buy
2 or 3 oil filters, 1 fuel filter (set) and a trans filter for LESS
than autozone wanted for the fuel filter pair alone !

all 6.0L engines SHOULD be using the same filters...confirm
it w/ fleetfilter.com theyve got an 800 toll free number, tell 'em
about our forum...maybe theyll sponsor it too :D
