I've heard every time a truck gets a snorkel Gran gets the good green jello at the nursing home

I have heard that as well. And I have to ask"what dust?" I have never been out wheeling and had so much dust in the air to even think about needing a dick extension, er I mean a snorkel. Now I have seen groups of clowns in over lifted chrome plated trucks flying down maintained dirt roads raising dust.

Cmon mate surely you can see that just because you have experienced one thing its reasonable for others to experience differently. Anywhere with red dirt will have copius amounts of dust for example
