Original Toyota filter, you can see and feel the quality, Toyota uses a pre-lubed o-ring instead of the flat gasket others use
I've used the spec Motorcraft filter (820S), and Motorcraft 5w20 synthetic oil EVERY TIME. This truck has been an absolute beast, and dead nuts reliable.
Motorcraft are good. Mobil1 Filters are very good, and are a great idea if your going to for long OCI's. I've used filters from Baldwin - they got very good reviews on the cut-apart tests - and I have a place where I can order a half dozen at a time for less than what I pay for Frams at Walmart. I am using Motorcraft on my F250
For my car that would be about $800 at the dealer (they are usually $35-$40 with coupon). Five years in and I am right around $1000. It has had about eight oil changes at the dealer (generous $400), an alignment ($100), a battery ($90), a set of Michelins ($400), a wiper blade refill ($10) and a couple engine/cabin air filters (maybe $50).
Actually, I can do it myself for less than half of that. I usually pickup 6 quarts of Mobil 1 at Costco for $25.99, and an OEM Motorcraft filter at Walmart for $3.95. For less than $30, I have a complete synthetic oil change.
OEM toyota oil filters for my vehicle. They're like $5 from the toyota dealership, and worth it.
