6637 filter life?

I just got my 6637, how long should I expect this to last, I drive dirt roads once in a while?

Twice as long as your stock filter....just rotate it 180 every once and a while.

I ran one with no prefilter for about 40k and the restriction gauge I installed in the end of it hardly moved. It was pretty grey looking but didnt have a problem. If there was a way to test it, I bet that filter would last 70k+ miles. the surface area is absolutely huge.!
