On a 99, the filter is part of the fuel pump assembly, located inside of the fuel tank. Normally, it is not replaced unless there are some sort of fuel delivery symptoms, then most guys replace the entire assembly which consists of pump/regulator/checkvalve/filter.
I got an oil change a while back and the guy said that my fuel filter was dirty and needed to be replaced. Is that something that he could have removed, looked at, diagnosed, and put back together all in a matter of 10 minutes, or was he yanking my chain?

If it gets up and goes at wide open throttle and high RPMs, your fuel filter is fine. Maybe he was going by the maintenance schedule, should be printed in your owners manual.
Tractors and big trucks have see-through filters that can be visually examined in 10 seconds. Jeeps don't, unless you add one, which isn't a bad idea if you filling up in Mexico or something.
Yea, I wonder if he meant air filter too. If he didn't, don't ever go back to this place for service!!!!! There is no good way of evaluting a 99 fuel filter while changing your oil.
