So now the Fram HP filters are Chinese? Geez....

I use Fram oil, gas and air filters on my daily driver 1996 GMC Sonoma, has 244,000 miles on it, prior to that used Fram oil, gas and air filters on the 1989 Chev Beretta that had over 275,000 miles on it when I traded it for the '96 Sonoma. That is over 1/2 million miles with no filter issues. Add to that:
wifes 1998 Olds Intregue, 175,000 miles
wifes 2011 Nissan Altima, 102,000 miles
my 1983 D150, 40,000 miles
with zero issues.
maybe all you guys are just unlucky, or maybe you listen to too much internet fluff.

Also considering today's products,
* Today you can buy a large screen TV, 65 inches + for less than 600.00 and that TV was likely made in China, the ones I buy have no reliability issues
** Today, all cell phones you buy today has content from China, anyone with cell phone hardware issues?
*** Today, the US cars that are actually built in the USA have decent quality levels, if it was not for world wide competition, we would be driving US built cars with the quality levels of the Vegas, Pintos and Aspens of the mid 70's. And it is not only the Corportate bean counters that had to wake up, the rank and file UAW workers had to also wake up and hear the music. World competition had made the marketplace better for all consumers.
