I have had Fords with the fuel filter external to the tank (Where it belongs) at 100,000 miles. I would not mind changing the filter every 35,000 miles if it was on the frame rail but in the fuel tank it is costly and could be dangerous. You do not get the tank sealed back-up there could be fuel leakage. Poor design in my opinion.

C'mon man, the symptom of a fuel filter that needs to be changed would be LACK of fuel getting to the engine not "dirt particles getting to the engine". Think about it, a filter that is clogging does not let MORE stuff through.

My 1990 Toyota truck has never had the fuel filter replaced and it runs fine. I think the fuel moves around inside the tank and washes the crud off the filter so the crud stays in the tank.
