I have an old '06 Dodge with a 5.9 Cummins in it. I need to be careful with even the air filter since an engine can cost one heck of a lot to rebuild.

I travel each year to the west coast to see my grandkids and we put on close to 5K each trip, plus what other travels we go on. I always leave with a clean filter and a spare, lots of trash at time in the air through Texas and Oklahoma when the plow.

I had the truck a few years and found and bought an aFe dry filter when they more or less first came out. Still had the spare in the back. When the filter got sort of dirty, when we stopped for the night, I washed it, shook it out, let it dry over night and put it in the next morning. After doing this a couple times, I threw out the spare stock filter.

Never had a trace of dirt or debris in the box, after the filter, tube or on the turbo blades. Always had plenty of air and still have the same aFe dry filter in the air box. At this rate, I'll have it until I get rid of the truck ...

I highly recommend them. AND I want one for my BMW now.
