Yep, THANK YOU!

"Do I care if you wear out your motor early, no" Doesn't that go against your whole point in bringing up these threads here, because you ARE worried about those of us who choose to buy these filters or so YOU say? In reality, it's because you once believed that they'ld actually add power and gas mileage so you later felt ripped off, right?

Anyway, like I've said before, my motor WILL go over 200K miles with that filter that I didn't buy for added power or gas mileage . I still will bet that you won't be driving your XC 90 that many miles because many other very costly, unrelated problems will occur long before that time and you'll opt to trade it for another new vehicle as most new Volvo owners today do.

As for what your links to other groups and tests might say, I don't care. I'd bet that most against K&N filters are somehow linked to those with a competing product, another vested interest group AKA.....$$$$. No independant groups would spend the resources to try proving otherwise as it'd cost alot of time and money and no one works for free.
