Either way, easy fix for you. The motorcraft filters are great and don't cost much.
In my experience with other cars, aftermarket usually cost less and worked equal or better than OEM. With Ford, experience has been the opposite. Going to try and stick with OEM.

Pocket style fender flares are arriving tomorrow! Hopefully I'll have time to install it.

You're absolutely right. Motorcraft is usually the best thing you can put in these trucks.

Good up the good progress.
