Oops, Explorer swimming.

Title speaks for itself. Only permantent damage so far is a dent in the driver side door and I think I shorted my tranny temp gauge. Power everything is working properly, tranny shifted weird coming to a stop all the way home, but should be fine. You can see in the pics the water line on the back of the hatch area. That line crossed my open window when I went through the deep part, I definitley got wet. There is a vid but I don't know how to post them. I'll email if people are interested.

Time to change fluids!!!

T case and Transmission for sure. Check the rear diff.

Your electric shift and ABS controllers are back there, hope they didt get wet!

Nice going!

You 're telling me you couldnt climb out of that? hahahaha......

Werew you trying to go around a closed road barrier or something? for shame for shame
 






HOLY HELL!
 






The yellow barrier was there because the bridge was out, you can almost see it in the pic. It wouldn't come out of 4 low at first, but did after about 15 minutes. Pulled the abs fuse long ago.
