A better oil filter wrench

[40Man]

Not sure if this has been discussed, but due to the fact that the stock housing lends itself to getting stuck on the filter wrench or rounding off the filter housing I recommend getting one of these instead:

I have one from when I had a Tundra, and it works awesome. There is another seller on ebay with a similar one for $9.00, but I can't vouch for it.

Do you know if it will work on the latest models, e.g. '16, '17's?
