Broken link gcal.

I found this video on YouTube though. :lol:
YouTube - Truck Attempts To Cross Flooded Road

All the links to this video say he "attempts" to cross,
so I was expecting to see him floating down the wash like a fish bobber.

Wonder how much fun he had trying to stop when some 4-wheeler cut him off after that.

Just imagine how much water got into the fuel tanks through the vent tube and how many fuel filters he is going to be changing!!

Amazing!!

I can't believe he got through that!
How did he keep water from getting in his air breather?

The air intake is mounted above the cab - you can see it in the video. it's on the left side, behind the cab.

Wonder how much slipping that clutch fan was doing after he got it that wet. Sure hope it didn't try to kick in while it was in the water.

Maybe that's how he made it across. His propeller kicked in.

That would make a difference. I was waiting for him to stall out. :lol:

If you look real close near the end of the video, you can see he has a rope or cable hooked to the back he's dragging. Maybe so he can be towed back if he got stuck.

Whatever was in the box was probably soaked!
