After torrential rains a couple weeks ago (something like 4.5" from
Thu-Sun), I forgot and went down the logical road on the way home from a
friend's house. When I saw the road closed sign, it was time to decide
whether to turn around then for a brief detour, or go another 3 miles to
the river for a possibly bigger detail if the flooding was real.
I went down the road, which I'd driven down a couple days before with a
couple inches over it, and it was NOPE. As I started to turn around, I
saw a tall, probably 4x4 Ford Superduty pickup approaching, and it
looked like he was going for it. I parked and watched the show in the
mirror. When the water hit front bumper, I knew I was right not to even
try it.
When the water reached its peak about 4-5" below the headlights, I
figured only an idiot would to that to a $60+k truck.
He made it, but it could not have been good for the truck.
