Now if that changes with the next batch I'll be cutting apart here shortly, I'll report back, but I don't suspect I'll see anything different.

Of course our Napa is privately owned and not part of the chain, so they carry just a little bit different stuff than a regular Napa. Not sure if that makes a difference on Wix/Napa Gold filters though. I would assume that's from similar suppliers.

Yeah it's true, here in Ohio and other parts of the US. As Mike has said, over 5 years. Here is the video that was made 2 years ago:

Heres 2 Wix filters, #51348, one made in the US, one made in china.

Before you insinuate I'm a liar, do your homework......

Not insinuating anything, keep your panties on. Just blanket statements like that need more explanation, hence the reasons why others are seeing differences depending on locations. This isn't a simple one answer solves everything type of issue. I think that has become obvious now and worth explaining so this thread provides all the information possible and becomes more informative for everyone to read.
