Well it's kinda funny there was a tow truck driver eating lunch like 50yards away who saw the whole thing. A guy in a Chevy Scottsdale tried to pull me out and almost got stuck, and then while the tow god went to get his wrecker another guy in a 4x4 jeep did not even get close to me before he got stuck so I guys Subies own all. but anyway so the tow god had to pull him out before he could pull me out. By the time they got around to pulling me out the tide had come in. My car had water up to the bottom of my door.

Car washes are easier in the driveway...

Man, I know you were stressin over that. Glad you got her out....

I'm in the Navy and have seen one burial at sea....BUT I would not want to have to see your or anyone else's Suby go out that way.

Tow God rules for the save.

LOL, I'd have thought twice about driving through that in my truck, let alone the scoob....LMAO, what were you thinking?

Thats cool though, I have been there too (not in the scooby) but still sucked. Glad to see you got her out in one piece, and the water didnt get into bad places. Did you have to bribe the tow truck driver to pull you out? They normally wont go near something like that, without "extra incentive." Great pix none-the-less.

I was laughing until "By the time they got around to pulling me out the tide had come in. My car had water up to the bottom of my door".

Well the whole thing started out innocent enough and then well you saw what happened.

Good news no Damage and everything inside stayed dry I spent like 20 bucks at the carwash getting everything off.
