While you're at it, drive your hilux through the ocean as well, cause you know, it's a hilux.

:lol: Good point. The problem is though mine is a 2006. I want one from 1988 like they had on Top Gear UK... that was the one that was built like a tank.

It survived:

• Being set on fire
• Being put at the bottom of the ocean
• Being hit with a wrecking ball
• Having a caravan thrown on top
• and for good measure, being on the rooftop of a building that was imploded and then STILL was in working condition.

I can't believe how unbreakable that thing was!

I don't know what he said, but just based on Timmah's comments, how is it possible for a living, breathing person to be that f**king stupid?

Guys, guys....It's not like it was BF's car that was submerged in that photograph.

I would not gone through it though regardless of the depth if I saw Police and what have you there. It could've been anything.

The fact they found it so quickly is something akin to a miracle. There was a French airliner lost in a similar incident over the Atlantic in 2009 that took 2 YEARS to find.

And that plane didn't deviate from it's flight path either, if I remember correctly.

Yeah I remember that well - Air France flight from Brazil to France. I don't remember them saying they found the wreckage though 2 years later.

1. I don't think so Tim... in fact I would probably go back and get a 4x2 if I had to chance, certainly wouldn't be a raping everytime I'm up for a refill. And no I didn't drive through that... just saying that if I was to be in such a situation it could've been less threatening to me. That photo came off the FB page.

2. Flood markers... good point, but to be honest with you, the road doesn't appear to dip that much so I didn't see the coming, and considering I've never seen a flood there before, I've never noticed it tbh.

Which FB page? If it's not your photo why not say where it came from? Certainly looked like you posted it with the intention of having people think you were there.

"doesn't dip that much"... how is that even relevant? Are you aware water can gather on flat surfaces as well? #-o

Yeah but I'm talking about the actual catchment. I never thought it would be so deep - look at the car.

Yes yes... let me just be clear I wasn't there, but luckily I have a 4WD in case I'm unlucky enough to end up in such a situation lol.

Shut up Eccles!

Victoria will win the shield next season. But Victoria has no good batsmen, maybe I'll get a gig in time for the 2015 shield final. A 4th grade ton should do it
