so, gentle reminder not to fall victim to 'get home itis' as it's called in aviation. Flooded roads can be a bad idea to Ford... or even Chevy... one. Everyone's got their canoes waxed and ready, right?
I figured I would be fine plowing through deep water because my air intake is the highest point of my engine bay.
Made it through some lakes just fine, and it was all well and good until the diff module, mounted to the bottom of the rear diff, shorted internally and took out the high speed CAN. Oops.
My kids were working sideline for tonight's 7th grade football game and when I left to get them there were already some deep puddles and flooding. Tested the water wings in the new daily.
on a sad note my kids play Thursday and they are saying 58 and rain
Rain and temperature fall expected here.
In other anger, yesterday was officially the last day of summer, Sept 21. I was in a Lowes in metro Cleveland last night. The employees were assembling artificial Christmas trees for sale and snow blowers were already on the sales floor. 
I can go pretty deep, 3' before I start to think "I hope this doesn't get too much deeper".
Just got in off the water myself. It is at this moment raining its arse off here. Not expecting it to stop before Friday.
You guys stay safe.
Yes, that is a Tesla S Plaid trying to drive under water. It ended up floating so he is going to try it again after Rocky Mountain Race Week where he is towing a diesel generator to fill up the Tesla.
