I probably would have tried to make it across, my truck is somewhat lifted, good tires, and put it in 4x4, throw it in first, let the clutch out and once I got near the water rev my engine up to 3000rpm. Probably could have made it through
Well, my wife and her parents did not want our SUV stuck in the flood waters, so her parents, who are farmers, went in with a tractor and trailer and got the SUV out that night.
Yeah glad we all were safe after that...although, I was almost arrested because this state cop I talked to, telling him my in-laws were coming back with a tractor and trailer, didn't believe me until my inlaws actually showed up there.
Tell your wife that we were the people in the white van at the very front (if she remembers). We probably saw her haha
When did you end up leaving? The police came over to us around 10:30pm and said we had to leave. And they wanted us to walk (from the front) all the way back to the foot bridge, back towards the fairgrounds. We said 'screw that' and waded out the front entrance.
