Diesel fuel is not nearly as 'dirty' as it was back 20 years ago. Now all gas stations are required to have fiberglass tanks, so you do not get the fluffed off steel, such as might have been found in a 30 year old tank that was installed back in the 60's.
Changing the fuel filter is normally not required that frequently now. Did you ever cut one open with a screwdriver to see if it trapped any dirt? Chances are it was pretty clean.
Yes I know - $15 bucks to protect a $15,000 engine. . Still it really is a waste of money to put that many fuel filters over a 5 year period.
