I bought this truck 2 weeks ago.
The air flow from my a/c vents was so poor.
I removed the air filter behind the glove box and the air flow was tremendous.
I wanted a filter, though, to protect the system.
I took a cheaper filter for my home a/c system (HDX brand FPR5 Home Depot) and cut out the exact size of the original.
Removed all cardboard and was sure to tuck it into the filter compartment nice and flat and even.
I now have hurricane force winds, with reasonable filter protection!
Save the old truck filter, just in case. Save the remainder of the home filter to make 3 more filters in the future if I need them.
You can go with a higher FPR or MERV rating, but it will restrict more of the air flow, the higher the number.
Watch the air flow direction.
My filter was about 8”x9” so I recommend 20x20x1 for the home filter, to get 4 filters. Cheap!
