The 2.8 was up to the wing mirrors in water

[Drift]

Im surprised the water didnt enter through the heater vents

You can hear Jase open the door and sounds like water fall out the car

[jason]

Yep water came through the heater vents, my bloody side
I Had wet feet for most of the day

[Drift]

[jason]

[jason]

Hi Andy
He has one and a good one at that
We had a look at his filter and air box at the end, and it was bone dry

[colley]

Yes i do mate
The first ford we did was that deep the bonnet was completely submerged under waster and it was up the windscreen for a 50 yards
Its the deepest water i have driven through Well impressed with the truck

Awesome vids guys, would love to have seen a vid of the third one from the riverbank, cracking stuff

EDIT: If you put the heater on the 'Re circ' setting would that stop water coming in through the vents ?
