Air filters

Not superior per se. I just hate the oil process of the K&N(oil filters). The aFe Pro-Dry uses a synthetic fabric. No oil but can still be washed and reused forever.

For $62.00 I would hope it might last a while. Notice there's no real "lifetime" estimate. I dunno, I find paper filters are pretty "convenient" and don't really have to be changed all that often.

Who's selling them for $62!?! I found them for about $40.

Well, ordered one. Guess I'll find out if they're any good.

Good on you! I just went to their website, and that's what they show.

Let me know what you think, I've never seen them. Just tried their website and couldn't find any for pre-2009 though. The only reason I use the oiled filter is because I constantly have to clean my air filter. Went about 10 K on my paper filter and it isn't in that bad of shape but since I got the oiled filter I have to clean it every 3k. I'm not gonna complain about cleaning my intake filter more often since it is the only fine particle protection the engine has.

Will do. J&J was actually right about the price. $38 was the "starting low as" price. Once I entered in my specific truck, it was $56 or something. No harm though as I needed to spend $75 for my coupon to count so got a new dash pod as well.

Any way to tell if this filter is "better" then the K&N?

It seems fine enough. It's slightly larger then the K&N while retaining the same basic shape.
