Hot take: CPPs and fuel filters are overrated

I heard a guy at the parts counter say he never changes his fuel filter more than once a year and I thought he was crazy. But I've been running a 7.3 Powerstroke for 10 years and only do mine every 8,000 miles, and it still pulls fine. Has anyone else seen lower engine wear from skipping the 5,000 mile change interval?

Used to think I could stretch it way longer. But after watching a buddy grenade his CP4 on the highway I swap mine at 15k like clockwork now. Not worth the gamble.

Blew a fuel line once on a mountain pass, never again skipping that filter swap.
