I subscribe to the oil is oil philosophy. I mostly use Baldwin and Donaldson filters on my vehicles (truck parts connection). Wix/NAPA would be a good option that is usually readily available locally, especially if you're using the factory-recommended oil change interval. The Absolute Efficiency oil filters from Amsoil with the Donaldson nano fiber media are some of the best oil filters commercially available. I use the Amsoil Absolute Efficiency on my Duramaxes and usually go 15K to 20K mile oil change intervals with oil analysis.
