It will be interesting to see how Gladiator owners challenge their new trucks in the deepest of waters! Let's see who gets closest to 30", or deeper!

Here is my first lousy attempt after some flash floods swept through the region last night. Deepest part was maybe 15".

What's the height of the front camera? If it's under 30", can it be used as a fish finder? :LOL::LOL::LOL:

Good idea! This is the tailgate cam though which might even be better since we would fish from the truck bed

No poles needed when fishing that deep...just drop the tailgate and back up into a school of them!

Jk on 4in lift with 37s. Not the deepest I've ever been. Had a river take me for a short ride but that was after I went full snorkel. This was normal airbox

Not mine, but this guy thought he could ford more than he could. Got in exhaust intake and interior. Mopar 2in lift n 35s too. His engine stopped and had to get winched out.

how deep did he get (measured by where the water was at his vehicle - ie half-way up headlights, 2/3 up tires, etc)?

how fast was he going?


What is the remedy/price paid for such a failure in the engine? Totaled? Tear-down/dry/relube? works on its own after leaving the water?
