I have never seen a $20 Fram air filter rebate before and thought I
would pass it on because it is an amazing deal and the rebate ends on
12/31. Here is a link to the Fram rebate form:

Fram is running a $20 rebate on their premium Air Hog air filters that
compete with K&N filters. For some cars & trucks, $20 off means these
reuseable filters are nearly free. For example the Air Hog air filter
for a 1996 Mustang 3.8L costs $1.79 after rebate. The Air Hog filter
for the 1990 Dodge Caravan 2.5L costs $0.79 after rebate. A super
reuseable air filter for much less than the cheapest disposable. They
are even orange! The prices are from http://www.rockauto.com Fuel/Air.

You get what you pay for is all I can say.

True. while AFAIK Fram's regular air filters are all right, I don't
understand the "Air Hog" concept. Even their advertising is retarded.
Obviously people are picking up on this and responding appropriately.
I'd rather have a car that really performs well than a truck (?!?!?!?!)
that makes the "giant sucking sound" when you step on it with nothing
to back it up.

Free? They'd have to PAY me (a lot...) to put one of those things on my
engine.

Nice value, Tom (even tho' I/we usually frown on spam). BTW: if you get
a comparable deal on KN cold air kits, email me. Altho' I don't use them, I
do sell (fill requests for) quite a few. Prolly will have to install one on
my driver-truck, just to keep down the backtalk! Thx, s.
