Both the K&N HP-1007 and 2006 will work on these trucks. The main difference is that the HP-2006 is almost an inch longer than the 1007.

Valvoline 5w30 when the change oil light comes on.

Used to be a diehard 3,000 mile guy... I'm comfortable with the monitor after doing a lot of reading.

They changed the filter length for a reason I'm sure. I'll stick with the shorter HP-1007 filter. If K&N recommends the shorter one like GM does, then I'll stick with what's recommended.
