Check out this pdf that compares Motorcraft to all the other filters (including Pennzoil.)

The only oil filters I've ever used on my truck is Motorcraft, Wix, Mobil One, and Purolator Pure One.

If you don't like it go back and ask for the correct one.

Small filter equals less flow and plugging quicker. It probably wont hurt anything but I dont like when stuff like that happens. They probably put on the cheapest filter they could find. I would have more peace of mind if I knew the proper one was on it. There are too cheap not to change it. The small filter seems to be a trend these days. A lot of cars now have oil filters smaller than what you would find on a 20hp briggs engine. I know they are engineered correctly but I still dont like it.. But I am a heavy equipment tech. I am used to filters 8,10 inches is diameter and about a foot long.. Ones that will break your foot if you drop them on it..

The Wix compares pretty good.

50 pleats 2-5/8" high for the MC, 61 pleats and 2-6/8" tall.

But the Wix has less flutes, so its not as easy to remove....haha.

I like how they show that the Fram filter has no flutes but they just say NONE and that its a black matte finish. I think FRAM, though crappy, is probably the easiest filter to grip/remove.

I looked through it more, all the 6/8 measurements bug the heck out of me. Call it 3/4 like the rest of the world...

I had a fram on my Ranger for awhile. That rubber stuff gets weird when it is constantly soaked in oil for extended periods of time.

I wonder why ford didn't say 3/8? I mean a dumb person would probably think that 5/8 is bigger than 3/4 just because of the higher numerator.

I'll never buy another Fram product again after my fuel filter episode with them.

Motorcraft FTW!

Here's what I found when I took my fuel filter out:
