O'Rielly's & Autozone auto parts here in Houston sells them.
Walmart should sell them as well.

I got a Mobile1 filter from O'Rileys last time I changed my oil. I had been using the 59s for the last five years.

Here's one oil filter study: http://minimopar.knizefamily.net/oilfilterstudy.html

Everything that I've heard about the Fram has been negative...I'd go with Wix before Fram any day. Now I'm stuck deciding if I want to go with K&N, Mobil1, Wix, or AC Delco UPF-44...or even the new Amsoil ea filter. I may give that Delco UPF-44 a shot when I run out of my 59's...if it's good enough for a Vette, it should be good enough for me

Ok so i quickly went through this thread and got all the alternatives on a piece of paper.

So, Alternatives to the PF-59

K&N, HP-2006 (PF-59 x-ref)
K&N, HP 1007 (PF-46 x-ref)
Mobil 1, M1-206
Wix, 51522
AC, UPF-44 (ACD's Ultra-Premium 46)
AC, PF-61 (Although listed, it has no anti-drainback valve but the same dimensions as the PF-59)

Not sure if there's a UPF-46, I think it's a UPF-44 that works?
