:doh: :wtf: really? I mean really....I am not the smartest person in the world but driving through 3 feet of water at over 40 mph might not be the smartest decision made.... but if he has the :cash: then more power to him. I would highly suggest that he invest in a snorkel next time...that or listen to the flashing check engine light..

People like that. You wonder how they make it to old age without getting killed through their own actions. I've done some stupid stuff in my time, but always looked out for my equipment.

Idiots tried to winch a 7500 pound truck out of mud with a steel winch cable that had no dampener on it. They may have been lucky that the winch had an electrical failure.

Yeah, this video could be used as a complete training in what not to do. So much wrong...not to mention no regard for any Tread Lightly ethics.

Haha...he has earned the wrath of the :winchmob: ! I think the thing that killed me most is when he said he pushed the truck to its limits....I nearly :vomit: . Completely stupid and he doesn't deserve a PW.

I am going to bite my tongue and not comment, other than to say what a waste of such a beautiful truck! I guess that my instinct to look after something that I have had to work hard to attain is not shared by everyone.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I think he's actually from Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada. Hence the handle name.
