Sooooo..... lemme guess your thought process on this one.

You and a friend decided to go tool around on some trails in your new hard core lifted truck with mud terrains. As your driving you or your friend suggest it would some great idea to take your massive truck through the lake cuz "it's not that deep" and this truck is huge anyways. After you get about 10 feet out you realize the lake is deeper then you thought and your truck isn't "that huge" after all. You then get stuck and trying to get the truck out in a frantic panic you hydro locked engine....

I would say I'm 90% correct. I used to off road in my old Jeep seeing people do really stupid things in their "awesomely huge truck cuz I've got big tires" was the norm. Congrats

I'm sure there's a good story, but sense it's not posted I'll just assume you drove in the lake and hydro locked it

warranty's wont cover that, insurance sees the pictures they wont either

My bro did the same sort of thing with his new Dodge on turkey day. We got it out of the river (Moses) and had a local guy flush the frothy tranny. He was riving it back to the cabin when the (still) frothy tranny fluid poured out the top of the filler and ignited on the exhaust. All I had was 1/2 a bottle of diet coke.
Once he got it down the hill to the dealer, they swapped the tranny (under warranty) since he had drained the frothy fluid.

Freaking Moses . . .
