If you'll be camping more than I would get the awning. Shade makes a world of difference at camp. The snorkel can come later, unless you're in the desert and closely follow others regularly and thus need cleaner air.

If you need the awning, get the awning. If you don’t need the awning, but can’t decide, get the awning. If you drive under water, get the snorkel.

I vote awning as well. The likelihood that you need a snorkel for fording is very remote. If you really do, you might want to reassess crossing something that deep. What do we have, 30“ of fording capability? That is pretty darn good as is.

I drive in the desert and have a snorkel with self-cleaning prefilter on my JKUR. It makes all the difference when it comes to plugging up my air filter. I will put one on my JTR when AEV puts one out. I don't think the snorkels on the market for the JT right now are worth spending the money on.

The awning probably means you need to also buy something to mount it to, like a roof rack. Probably the better investment right now.
