Went To Windrock near Oak Ridge TN today. Had a good time went with my boss (Toyota Landcruiser) and his nephew (Heep Cherokee).

The Heep almost going on its side, winched him back up and he made it next try.

Pulling the Heep out, ended up having to pull him all the way to the parking area. Water over the console inside the cab, tranny and engine have water in them.

...A rollover in water can be the end...:eek:

...Thanks for sharing the pics..:biggthump...I would hate to be the heep owner right now...Why does the Landcruiser have cables from his brush guard???
 






Dude

Thats awesome. I have been wanting to go there
 






Why does the Landcruiser have cables from his brush guard???

They keep tree branches from scratching the a post and hitting the windsheild.
 






Is that a snorkel on the heep? So much for that advantage...
 






thems are some sweet pics!!!
 






Yes it is a snorkel, when he first went in the pond in the lower pictures he started floating. He lost traction while floating, then the water started getting in and he could not get backed up before it stopped running.
