Default Air filter question?

what filter set-up is working the best for WORK TRUCKS?
I cannot run an open cold air, because I'm in the dust,weeds,grass,wheat stubble,and various other hazzards daily. Cannot risk dusting the motor.

The filter cost me only $57 & you have two ways of cleaning it, you can wash it & let it dry or you can vacuum it

Since I don't have time to let sit & dry off, I've always just get the vacuum cleaner with the fine nozzle & vacuum it clean
