Oh shit. There's a K20 on eBay for $5,200.

Yep. You should set up an account there and sell some for the college fund!

You guys jinxed the market.

The first rule of investing is...you do not talk about investing.

On the contrary.. Asking price doesn't always mean selling price. I could be wrong, but that might be "on sale" for quite some time.

Guys commonly flip it for more. Although it might not be 5K it’ll probably go for at least 25% above cost.

I’d take that return any day of the week.

Yeah, I understand. And if you have a k20 for sale for 25% please pm me. Id gladly pay that. From my math this is a 225% markup and not sure if it will fly off the shelf.

Changed my oil yesterday evening. $168 for 15 quarts and a filter.

Dang O Reileys charges $35 for a motorcraft oil filter now. Going to have to go back to buying them online, they use to be the same price a few months ago.

I was buying my FL2016 from Amazon. Recently their price matched AutoZone.

Be careful what you buy and where you buy it, there is a lot of Chinese counterfeits out there now

Oh man, literally several times a day I hear this from customers in our shop:

“Ooooh, this is 10 here?! I saw it online for 5.”

Honestly, I don’t even try to be cheap with my prices.

But seriously — how do people not smell something fishy when they hear a price that’s literally HALF for the exact same item?

10–20% difference? Sure, I can understand that.

But twice cheaper or even more? Dude… that’s Chinese knock-off garbage or some AliExpress (china) drop-shipping scam, come on.

Yup I think it’s the biggest problem with Mopar/Fleetguard. And especially anything on Amazon lol

The 2016s were $44 at Oreillys! Our 2024s are 35.99

Did I ever share with you my honey hole for Ford parts and filters Nathan?
