Is anyone running the AFE ProGuard Oil Filters in their truck? Do you have anything to say about them? The price is right on them at about $16 each.

WOW am I lost.
Are we talking about oil filters or air filters here?

I suspect somebody got lost in translation. I think the OP is asking about oil filters. Never seen a diesel air filter for $16.99. If that oil filter is not exactly like the filter that comes in the Motorcraft box, do not use it! There have been issuses with people using "make fit" filters on Powerstroke 6.0/6.4 engines. The filters do not provide good sealing in the filter sump, allowing oil to drain down into oil pan. I got 15 Purolator oil filters sitting on the shelf in the garage, bought them for $2.49 each from Pep Boys on sale. Only bought them after confirming they were exact same filter that Motorcraft markets for the engine.
