Where you absolutely refuse to go the cheap way.

For me its deodorant. Everything else I’ve found but my chosen brand fails me.

    I’ll run the cheapest oil I can find but I will only buy Mobile 1 filters. I can’t remember the YouTube video I watched but the conclusion was Mobile 1 were almost the best and Fram are crap.

      That is interesting.

      It took me a while to land on the mobil 1 filters. I think I was using wix before. Glad to hear they’re good.

      I assume you change your oil often? I only do so every 5k with the mobil 1 oil ( extended mileage). That still makes me a bit nervous but no problems. The (haynes?) manual I use says not to go more than 5k even with synthetic.

      Edit to add: Those videos where they open the oil filters are really interesting. So much marketing bullshit on the outside and very real differences on the inside.
