Snorkels on vehicles

[Rain Man]

There's an SUV that's been parking outside my house recently, and it looks like something that suzzer would drive to Patagonia. It's got extra gas cans strapped to the top, some sort of cargo carrier, big ol' spotlights that would blind an elk, and most importantly a snorkel.

Has anyone ever had a vehicle with a snorkel, and did you ever find yourself in a situation where you used it? I like them a lot and am considering putting a decorative snorkel on my BMW just to make it look even more cool.

You have missed some of the best fun you can have in a car.

Sounds like a good way to hit a pedestrian walking to the stairwell as you come flying around a blind corner. Not my kinda fun but the lawyers would have a great time with it.

I was young, didn't think the lawyer stuff, but at 3 AM and all the noise we made, I didn't think that hurting someone was going to happen. I was worried about a disabled car...There were lot's of things I did in my youth that would be frowned upon now and I was one of the responsible kids...Even when i was thinking with the wrong brain, I kept a good lawyer on retainer. One of KCMO's Fab 4.

We cruised the garages and had the entry blocked, still it could have become a major liability and would not suggest my grandkids to do when the time comes.
By the time that happens climbing a tree will be illegal. I'd guess it ready is in some places.

Thanks for telling me about the legalities 35-40 years later. Next I guess you want to discuss my urinary retention ....
