to keep the thread going

Hmmmm. It's like this thread has a snorkel. It goes into the depths of the archives, and comes out the other side with yet another photograph!
 
is that a pic from the east european truck trials? they used to show those late at night on espn in norway, always set to classical music...

nothing like seeing a 50T, 8-axle crane truck bounce down a cliff to "the blue danube".

I know what you are talking about, but no this is not trials, this is like a SEMA show in russia but for military ;)

Snorkel?

Yeah, I can't see much of a use for one... think I will take mine off and install pre-runner fenders :snorkel:

The current was so strong that is moved my 6,000 lb truck about 5 feet down stream.

I am going to get one but for the Sorento its tough due to the lack of USA aftermarket support. Therefore I have to go out of the country to get it. But it will be worth it. I am waiting until I get a few other mods first though.

We were in the Santa Maria mountains near Prescott. Flash flood from summer storm caught us between two rivers.

Had someone crossed before you? I guess they would have to get that photo of you. How well did the other vehicle do? (Edit, just saw the other thread)

I suspect that a few years ago you wouldn't have made that crossing, but now you have the itch to build a new truck so you are pushing the envelope on the Taco. That's my 2 cent psycho-analysis. :hehe: :elkgrin:
