Since they don't want me to troll the "What do you use for a truck gun?" thread with the answer "None, I live in a muslim country and it's safe here!", Let's post a video of the rain in Sharjah/Dubai.

Been thinking about you as I read the news--Hope you found a nice high place to park!

We ended up with about 5 inches of water in the front yard/car port and the water level stayed below the brake discs and the undercarriage.
Our house did fine as It's about 6 feet up from the street level. Not everyone was this lucky, though and I've a friend who lost a car in his driveway.
I was simply too impatient the next day when the water level was going down one inch every 2-3 hours and I took the truck out while the water was still too high in the street so I got water in the cabin (again).
Now I know what Noah felt when he was stuck in the ark waiting for the water to go down 😂.

Here are a couple of pix of a project that has been ongoing for over ten months. One without the RTT (Columbia Autohome Medium, custom painted) and one with. Alcan leaf spring upgrade for 1500 lb. was the last needed install. 2017 GMC Canyon, 2.8L LWN was the base model.

Big changes for the Ranger.

Oh, and I got 19 MPG on the way home from New Jersey to Ontario Canada, which was shockingly good.

Overland Racks Ontario, elite series aluminum, with the tri-fold brackets. It was and is an excellent rack.

This is our 2023 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 in Sumitt White. And a close up of the nifty engine block heater w/cord & plug. No more opening up the hood to plug in.
Also, the Wife's 23' Subaru Forester Wilderness. Best car we've ever had & we are a 9 Subaru family. Daughter has had 3, Son has had 2 & we have had 4. First one was a DL wagon with hi/lo range. That car was fantastic offroad
Plans for the ZR2 are a Dirtbox Canopy Camper and Alcan custom rear leaf springs, after its all kitted out. I want it to sit like factory at maximum weight.
