One time in CO I drove my jeep across a river. I wandered slightly off the "path" and ended up in a hole. The water was flowing through the drivers door and out the passengers door. My German Shepherd was in the back seat looking at me like "WTF?".
So, some friendly folks towed me out and the thing was hosed. We hung out for a little bit and then I had them tow me back through the river. Once on the road - I had them keep towing me while I was in 1st gear for about 3 miles. Then, the engine turned over and off I went. I never had it looked at our anything. It ran until I traded it in at a dealer 3 years later. That's why my other vehicle is a Wrangler
