I don’t see anything that indicates is a good air filter…..look for a filter that says it’s a hepa air filter.
Hepa filters have less flow but they have superior filtrations.
you should probably keep some n95 mask in the truck just in case.

One day Amazon says these fit my 2024, another day they say they don't:

I need to get a couple of spares as they are predicting a local volcano is gonna blow soon.
Decent quality filter?

I could be wrong but I read it as thought the OP wants a filter for the engine..........not cabin.

LOL, ........................any way back to topic. When we have our trucks (and other engines) in the forest dealing with spent forest fires, there is a ton of powder like ash everywhere almost like flour. We will wrap our stock filters with a thin foam rubber soaked in oil and wring out the excess. Same as a prefilter on a lawn mower/small engine. Just make sure to remove it once the air is clear. Works wonders and is reusable after cleaning.

More info on the link for that filter I posted above. Looks to be a legit, OEM style air filter for your truck.

I'm not a big fan of Made in China filters. But during Covid, I could not find Motorcraft Air filters, So I bought a Doc's and it worked fine.
Last fall I bought a Motorcraft air filter from Rock Auto and it didn't come close to fitting my 2023. Even though the part numbers on the box said it should fit. Frustrated and not wanting to buy another Wrong sized filter, I bought a Doc's and it fit just fine.

If you want to see how well your filter works just put a smear of clean grease in the downstream air flow. Next time the filter is out look and see how much dust it has collected.
White lithium grease would be good for this. I wouldn’t use silicone as that might be bad for downstream sensors.
