I just had to get this on film, the stream was a few inches higher on our return from camping. Thankfully, I made it or I would have never lived it down... Go Subaru GO!

Water that high would get in my exhaust and intake (hence keeping it shallow and fast with my car). I definitely can't go there.

I always wondered why my 98 legacy outback had water tight seals on the doors...
now I know
-
@renichms If your car is running, it will not effect your exhaust. But yes, your intake will get fucked, unless you reroute your intake.
-
@dgsblb Reroute your intake with a $5 vacuum hose and you wouldn't have that problem. lol

Might as well save up for a wrx swap!

Awesome. People sometimes really do underestimate the capability of these cars.

If you use a snorkle you wouldn't have an issue.. you'll just need to change your diff oil, casue water will seep through the seals and turn your gear oil into gray crap.

You're lucky you didn't flood your cylinders, like me :(. I didn't realize how deep the puddle was and took it too fast.
Check my videos so you know what's too deep, because I'm looking at about $3,500 for a new engine (labor included).

Yeah, I'm kind of a knucklehead. The Subaru manual says not to go into water deeper than the chassis.... well I about doubled that (or more). I don't think I'd do water this deep again, but I want to go play some more REAL BAD! It's winter now..... bring on the snow!

Crazy! Did any water get in through the doors? Are they sealed or something? Ive never seen a water crossing like this with a wagon before!

Thankfully, no water got in! The only casualty was my drivers side foglight filled with water and died, but that's a small price to pay for getting this recorded.
