Correy,
Before I had the snorkel fitted I had added the bull bar and winch which saw my economy go from 10.5 lt /100k to 11.5 around town and from 9 to 10 on a trip after the snorkel was fitted it went back to the original figures for the last trip I have just done 11600 k's in outback Qld and the cape york trip fully loaded up and towing the camper the average for the trip was 13.4 lt/100 very pleased with the economy the camper comes in at around 1600 kg fully loaded with all the camping gear The roof rack has added a little bit of drag and wind noise stress on a little noise, now unloaded on a trip it sits around 9.5 lt/100 Tradesman have another deflector for the front of the rack which I'm going to get and see if it changes anything
thanks for your time

Any extra wind noise or induction noise etc from the snorkel? Not that I mind, I like the extra growl it can sometimes provide

Kayezy,
you can hear the induction noise at low speed on acceleration but after that very little and wind noise is negligible.
thanks for your time

Hey Sparky, nice work getting out there and doing it. Just wondering, did she spring any leaks during that water crossing? Any water in the battery box? How did the seals hold up in general?
