Oh my effing god!! That is terrible!
Where to start??? The pipes getting smashed off under the car?
The passengers smashing their heads on the pipes?

Just the cost of the elbow fittings would be more than a regular snorkel

I'm at work so can't watch youtube..... but parked outside the Dargo pub one time I saw a Hilux with a PVC snorkel that had a massive hole smashed in the side of it.

I ahhhh just got to the ahhhh computer and ahhhh managed to watch the ahhhh video. ahhhh.

AHHHHHHHHH STOP SAYING AHHHHHHH

It takes all kinds hey...... he is the biggest wank! These are some good quotes

"quite frankly I put this thing through hell"
"the back is full of crap because I am always ready for some serious wheeling

Then he opens the door and it is COVERED in mud, like he sat in a bog hole, spinning the wheels throwing mud up and had the windows wound down and just filled it.

Secretly I'm jealous I'm not that hardcore.

That is a fantastic idea, I can't wait to do that to mine....WTF!!!

The sound in the cab would be epic...LMAO

Yabb
18th September 2013, 09:02 PM
Ha. x2 regarding the tailpipe in the cabin as well!!!

Love the redneck illegal immigrants sticker on the back, if he goes ahead with the compressor and the inflatable floats he'll be able to drive a jeep load from Cuba (presuming you could find a car full of people willing to ride in that thing)!!!!

Stupid American!!! Seriously! i read most of the comments, the Aussies were giving him a very hard time. He is simply an Idiot! watch his Snorkel Testing video!! OMG! Drives head long into a river or dam fast until it floats, looses traction and sits. the engine cuts out. he gets out the sun roof, across the roof and off the back into the water, casually opens the flip up tail gate and continues to flood the car while he fits the rear winch into the rear mount of his bumper. the 2 kids int eh car and now standing on the front seats with their heads out eh sun roof trying to stay dry!.

He writes it like it was a Hero test and he won! WTF!!! He is an IDIOT!

He is an Idiot! his winch is on one of those receiver platforms and he has an Anderson plug on the front and back and carries the whole thing in the back of his car. He is truly an Idiot in my Opinion. An Accident waiting to happen.

this is one of his posts and i am trying to understand it is it a 4in body lift with a 4 in suspension lift i dunno douche bag anyway, like all good rednecks brags about drinking and driving

.2000ViperGTS 4 days ago

Thank you my friend! just an axle, my diff, tranny and T case have held up. The problem is I have it lifted 8 inches and it is on a 4" lift kit so the axle does not line up correctly and is under stress. What is funny is I was drinking Jack Daniels and coke as I was driving :-)

20th September 2013, 03:33 PM
what a tosser ??? is he on coke?? oh he does say jacks and coke so i assume straight jacks with a snort of coke.

as a plumber i think it could have been done alot simpler
there is all types of angles and flexible joints

I seriously don't understand the Jeep thing, especially when they do that! Talk about not having a clue.

So glad I got a Patrol. haha.

13th August 2015, 11:13 AM
Wow, you would have to own a plumbing supply chain to afford all the joints. I can't understand why he doesn't like the snorkel pipe coming through the guard and up the piller, but finds a reticulation system in the back seat area acceptable. Like the sticker though.

Well, being an American, I must say that New Jersey is referred to as the armpit of the nation for good reason. I will be the first to admit that most American have no clue about proper 4x4ing. I myself have had to learn much after purchasing my Patrol - most of I've learned from you Aussies on this forum ;)
