One of the kids asked me "Wheres your winch?" I just laughed and said "Im not dumb enough to purposly get stuck so dont need one." He looked weird and said "Well how do you get out if you sink in sand or something?" I said "IM old school, Ive got a Hi-Lift, Come-along, tow strap n chain. Thats all ive ever needed." Kids are too damned lazy now adays. "Ooohh, I want a faster way to get unstuck so I can go get stuck again!!" Look kids, If you didnt make it the first 5 times, chances are ya aint gonna make it at all.

They both have pros and cons. Some of the most important ones are
1: price, cowl is cheaper
2:looks, with a snorkel your ***** gets bigger
3:usage, how many times are you up to the window in water

Some people don't like snorkels because driving in the rain can get water In the air box. I personally think they are mostly for aesthetic purposes I personally would never forward water that deep enough to need a snorkel in my dd. but I will probably end up doing something similar to a cowl

And those are my 2 cents at 2 am

Yah i was thinking about rain/ dd etc. especially where we live. Thinking I may just cowl it, call it a day. Not often that water hits the windshield. Plus I have room for 35s, decent upgrade from 31s. And my tires are basically sold so I can upgrade.

Damn you josh! Lol! I'll call ya later today, need to borrow your pitman puller. I have parts in my rig now, ups delivery tomorrow for more incoming from rustys. You'll probably read this before I wake up. Blaaaaaaaahhhhh . Ugh late work night

Also snorkels negatively affect the sexiness of xj looks cowl hoods add to it and serves its purpose every day. now if your talking cowl intake it also is just a funnel for water to be ingested .
