Default Oh, NO!! Where'd my 20004 go??

Just went to local Toyota dealer last Friday and they said their distributor no longer carried the 20004, made in Japan, superdooper oil filter. I went to IronToad and they are no longer pictured as an item to purchase. What's going on?

Toyo switched manufacturers in December 03. They are now made in Thailand.

I still remember your excellent comparison/review of the 20004 filter from a while back.

My local Toyota dealer had plenty of them when I went to pick up the 20004 filters last November. Now they're no longer carrying them.
