Any tips on air filter change on 2020 XLT?

I must be getting old. The air filter is suddenly a pita. There is a bunch of stuff connected to the cover. How much of it do I have to disconnect to get it off?

Thanks. The boot wasn't coming off too easy, so I asked. Great info. Will give it another try.

On my ST I needed to use a flat blade screwdriver to loosen the boot and then it slid right off. Just be careful so as not to damage any thing.

Got it! Needed to muscle the boot a little. Thanks all.

As Ricky, indicated, there is lots of good info in the Owner's Manual.
