Default Changing air filter

Hi all,

I know this is a newbie question but how do you get to the air filter to replace it? What's the easiest way to get at and change the filter?

Thanks

The procedure is detailed in your owner's manual/guide.

Hold your mom's purse and let her do it. I am sure she would be able to figure it out!?

My first thought was WOW. Your kidding right? But I know several grown men that have not a clue what to look for under the hood.

We need to know the year, make and model of your truck. From my own experience, some filters can be tricky to remove and replace. I have had techs from the dealer improperly install the cover, causing an air leak. So, as funny as it sounds to some, it's good to ask the question.
