Never thought I'd see the day when Autozone would stop stocking K&N filters for the fox 5.0's That and no 4" coupler to go from the MAF to the Air box

Am I getting old?

Then my search gets worse... I search ebay for a K&N filter and come up with this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/79-9...ryZ43946QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem

It's a used "K@N" filter and replaces "stick" filter. For only $24.99 + $7 s&h. What a steal.

His mass air and rubber hose look trashed too. Jeez, clean your crap up before you try to sell it. Another gem worth every penny at 75 plus shipping.

Can you say " Please accept this merchandise back and refund me my money, I will buy my parts from another parts store that does make judgemental comment about the vehicle that I drive or the parts that I buy for it that pay your paycheck"

That may be a little longwinded, but you get the point, don't give people your money when they don't appreciate your business.

Of course mine is a 2.3, but I ordered mine from O'Reilly, was probably 2-3 days when they got it in.

It must be kinda like the headlight and taillight blackouts ( not saying i want them). They used to always be in stock for 87-93. Those days have moved on to newer models.
