WIX hyd filter almost twice the cost

[sansone]

yes imagine my surprise when the local auto parts store was able to cross reference the Mahindra number (19642509000) to WIX 57118, NAPA 7118
without asking for price, I agreed to have them get me one, next day (oh boy)..

imagine my surprise when the clerk asked for $85 I said just one, not a case of them luckily they trade with other stores so I was not obligated to accept it (I offered to take it anyway)

the nearest Mahindra dealer is 150 miles (each way) may need to ride the bike on a pretty day

speaking off fiterrrrs, I wanted a new outer air filter for a L4400 Kubota and thought I would pick it up at the CarQuest or Napa store. My price at either was 30 dollars plus or minus. Price at the Kubota Dealer was 19.77. It pays to have an extra on hand if you use'm.

Yep its weird that oem would be cheaper, but it happens every now and then.

19642509000 from mahindrapartsonline - $43.40
