I think I read someplace where a guy ran 50k on his with no ill effects. I'd probably go half that myself...

Personally i change mine about every 10-12 months. They are only 20 bucks so to me it's cheap insurance.

It's a cheap filter that lets the truck pull alot more air in. It's also called the kwik filter or tymar filter. You can get them from fleetfilter.com for about 20 bucks. I order two at a time since shipping is 10 bucks weather you order one or two. Do a search on this site and there will be alot of results for this filter.

Okay, well technically, it's a "6637" not "6673", but we know what he meant...
