You're crazy, Tundra's can't swim!

No offense, I mean't that in a good way

I just can't imagine taking a Tundra, or any newer model 4x4 for that matter, into water that deep. Buy an old Jeep Scrambler.

Sorry, to answer you're question I haven't seen a snorkel for a Tundra yet, but you would think that companies would finally start making some real aftermarket parts for us soon. The Tundra isn't going to go anywhere so I think the fear part's manufacturers have of being stuck with a back-stock of parts for a truck that was discontinued (T100) will have to subside eventually.

Yeah... I don't know if I'd take my new truck into situations where a snorkel would be necessary. Get a 'Cruiser. They're great for that type stuff.. and theres plenty of related products.

I don't plan on getting that deep with my truck. But I have done some water crossing. I'd also like to get one for dust when off-roading. You can get pre-filters for them.

I figure my tundra can safely wade in about 1.5 feet of water. (as long as the ground is firm under the water) I have about 12 inches of ground clearance.

You have problems when you need to enter the water from a hill. The front of your truck is pointing down and could suck water in.

Well, that makes sense. I haven't seen any snorkels specially made for the Tundra. BUT, you could get one made to fit.
