    I got to say I am not in love with it. They have yet to make a decent looking one for the 3rd gen.

    I'm trying. The ONLY option is ARB and it is damn hideous. I will continue with retrofitting until I find a solution that works

    Can’t say I’m a snorkel fan on any truck, but if you love it then I’m happy for you. You’ll be able to do any and all off roading. No limit with water now

    Excuse my ignorance @mesojdm, but if your treading in water that high, isn't your interior getting soaked? Wouldn't mildew be an issue? :rain:

    I realize people have been doing it forever, but do they not remove their carpeting or something???

    In this part of the world, snorkels do more to mitigate dust and allow the engine to breath cleaner air. Plus, expo as fuck!

    Yup. It will be highly unlikely I'll get water up that high, I'm mainly doing it to get the intake redirected out of the inner fenderwell. With no fenderliners.. it's a mess under there.
    Plus- dat street cred.
