How unlucky for that poor fcker killed by a falling tree...looks like they had actually pulled over on the side of the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the air intake my guess is if it reaches bonnet line ones f*cked? Wouldn't have been fair off lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never had any say Panda I <3 Floods Silver Donating Members 11,198 Member For: 13y 6m 11d Gender: Male Location: South West QLD Posted 13/10/11 09:48 PM Share Posted 13/10/11 09:48 PM Doesn't necessarily mean you can drive through water that is shallower then the bonnet line.. Gotta allow for Afflux (Where the water is being pushed higher as it can't go anywhere else). So I personally wouldn't be keen taking it through anything that is deeper then about 250-300mm.. And remember where the snorkel joins the airbox isn't a water tight seal.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK down there Bomber? Looked like you guys would have copped a fair bit going by the radar. At least the storms passing through would temporarily stop everyone killing each other!
