We're one mile of gravel road to the blacktop from the house.

No dust past the filters. They work for me!  But if I was the OP and after reading 10 pages of negative responses I'd be running to NAPA for the paper to.
So you are running oil analyst regularly and have verified that your K&N filters are not letting dust by? That goes for everyone. Show us your oil analyst reports. Or is your finger better than a lab on checking on this?

Had oil analysed on my Jeep.  The HIGHEST silicon reading was with a paper filter.  Had oil analysed on my Caddy.  The K&N is filtering fine. (The engine in it has never run with a paper filter more than a few miles.)
