That's really surprising that the engine didn't stall from the water, but maybe it didn't get high enough. He was certainly heavy enough with all those logs.

Well I wouldn't try it at home, but I'd try it with that truck

and weighted like that!

One time years ago, I went on what was called a Week Long with

my horse group at this place in the Sierras. Poured rain for DAYS

and the adults decided to call it and drive out. The 3-4 little creeks

we'd crossed (no bridges) on the way in were now very fast, high

rivers. Decision made to unload horses and just walk them across.

Several horses balked and wouldn't go, until my Dad went and got

MY mare. She went out and right in, and of course once you can get

one to go the rest will follow. Val's chest was puffed up with pride,

I can tell you!

I love that story and I would have felt the same way, Val!

Look at this. Russians make the best industrial off road equipment in the world or so it is said.

My dad likes off-road activities and he bought most of his accessories from 4WheelOnline.
