I'm gonna see if I can pic up an endurance tomorrow, I just wanna give it a try as my truck is sensitive to filters. It will be good news if my truck doesnt tick. If it's in stock, we'll see.

The ONLY place that had them in my town was Walmart, and they had a wide variety and plenty of stock.

Are you planning on a factory size or oversize?
I'm thinking I already know, but if oversize, what filter number will you choose?

I'll say one thing, those Endurance filters are noticeably heavier and feel more solid than all other Fram filters. Feel more like RP or M1. Kitchen scale proves it too.
FE10060 weighed 315g and the XG10060 weighed 253 IIRC.

Fram Endurance might be an exclusive marketing deal with Wally World. Going off of faulty memory here, thought I read that when announced. Seems to be more of a trend these days - overpay for rights to overcharge consumers.

Fwiw, I purchased a couple of Royal Purple 20-820 oil filters from Summit Racing (12/23/22). I've used one (6/1/23) and the other sits in a cabinet and still looks new.

On the opposite end that is screwed onto the oil filter mount/engine has the date code/place of manufacture and are extremely close to those of the feller that he just recently purchased.

Ever thought how many of these oil filters are massed produced by the minute and shoved off in boxes and shelved ....?

We know endurance and amsoil are clones, amsoil eao11's are 23 bucks and 18 bucks member pricing, and endurance bought at walmart is just under 13 bucks. Call me crazy, but amsoil can suck a large ball with a small mouth before I buy it there.

I suppose if you guys order online you get ripped for duty, tax, and shipping?

So much for NAFTA, or whatever they call it these days.

NAFTA was replaced with USMCA (United States/Mexico/Canada Agreement) about three years ago and is supposed to be a better thing for North American business and farmers, etc. to create more balanced trading between the the three countries, lol.

Is it working?

so some a-s-shole took the only endurance fe2 and put a syntech filter in it's place, lol. So yes great selection of endurance filters but none our 20-820 size, which goes further to prove how popular this size is.

I generally don't go into Wally's anymore, order online. Too hit & miss on inventory. Their website stock is often incorrect.

Yeah our local one is seriously the best example of unwashed masses any on this erf.
From what I have seen over the years and in my travels ALL Wally Worlds are like this. My wife and I hate going to WW but when we do we typically seem to comment on the class of citizens found in them. Many are down-right scary. We have found that the best time to go there is early on a Sunday morning. Apparently these type of folks are still nursing their hangover.....
