Man, I'm done, you people don't even read a post before you start to spout like Mt. Vesuvius. Did any of you ranters even read anything I posted, or did you just cut and paste?

Never, ever, ever, ever did I say anything about HP increases, better filtering, or anything else you guys are ranting over.

I did point out that the company has been in business for over 50 years, so they are obviously selling something people are buying.

Hopeless, absolutely hopeless.

They work for some people, in wet, muddy or humid conditions. They don't work work a poop in dusty, or dry, or dirty, or desert conditions with a lot of airborne particulate matter, dirt, or dust, where you really need the air filtered of airborne dust, dirt and particulate matter.

I refuse to pay that kind of money for an oily cotton rag passing as a "filter" that does NOT work effectively for the places I drive.... farm country, AG country, desert dirt and dust country, the whole West and Midwest area of the USA. The South East, East and North East tend to have enough frequent rains and humidity to make mud more common than air born dust.

PT Barnum said "Don't worry about that, there's a sucker born every minute." That was a long time ago, it's probably down to every 5 or 6 seconds, nowadays. Add in the quality of USA public schools and education nowadays, and folks having critical reasoning skills, and it's probably down to 3 or 4 being born, per second.
