    All - Please excuse the possibly stupid question, but how long should this filter last?

    Thanks Roland!
    I was looking on their website and couldn't find that info. I figured it'd be similar to the K&N's but didn't want to assume anything.

    Well.... NUMBERS... after I Installed my AFE Pro Dry S drop in filter these are the results:

    NON-TOWING (verifyed with Scangauge II)
    Better at highway speeds (from 65MPH to 70MPH)
    WIND Speed an important variable. (It does affects performance).
    SETUP: Four Doors, 4 wheel drive, Long bed, 17" tires (OEM -35 PSI-), 5 persons (530 pounds) and 530 pounds of weight on bed.

    BEFORE AFTER
    MPG 18.6 MPG @ 65-68 MPH 22.4 MPG @ 70MPH
    RPM 2000 RPM @ 66 MPH 2000 RPM @ 70MPH

    After 70 MPH you began to get a steady performance or lost on MPH or an increase of RPM.
    Winds of 25-35MPH decreases almost 3 MPG @ 70 MPH and increases
    RMP to keep 70MPH up to 2350-2450RPM.

    Not good aerodinamyc, even with a LEER CAP.

    TOWING -folding trailer, Fleetwood E3- (verifyed with Scangauge II)
    Better at highway speeds (from 60MPH to 65MPH)
    WIND Speed an important variable. (It does affects performance).
    SETUP: 08 TRD Sport, Tow Pckg, Four Doors, 4 wheel drive, Long bed, 17" tires (OEM -35 PSI-), 5 persons (530 pounds) and 530 pounds of weight on bed.

    BEFORE AFTER
    MPG 12.8 MPG @ 60-65 MPH 14.3 MPG @ 70MPH
    RPM 2500 RPM @ 65 MPH 2100 RPM @ 70MPH

    After 62-65 MPH you began to get a steady performance or lost on MPH or an increase of RPM.
    Winds of 25-35MPH decreases almost 5 MPG @ 65 MPH and increases
    RPM to keep 70MPH up to 2500-2800RPM.
    On 15 to 25 grades going up, there is no way to use D 4th is the only gear to get it up and is normal a 50MPH speed @ 2000-2250 RPM
    Total aprox weight on RV is 3,000 pounds. everything loaded (except water in their tanks).
    RV tires are 15" at 50 PSI.
    DAMN! I need the TSB on my '08, it has been reduced almost 2" in the back when towing and there is around 450 pounds tongue weight.

    Not good aerodinamyc, even with a LEER CAP.

    END POINT... AFE is GREAT!. :)
