We used to live near a causeway that you had to pass through to get to ANYWHERE. It was flooding real bad and I was driving the Sooby. I drove in and straight away, it conked out (must have sucked in water.) But through some emergency key-in-ignition-turning and a lot of chugging-but-not-starting I finally got it out before it washed away. It still runs perfectly and that just shows what good performance these Soobys have.

 

Subaru motor/waterpump eh

washing out the catalitic converter LOL

I've managed to cross a "river" in my Legacy, but the water was only 1.5-2 feet deep. Plus, the bottom of the riverbed was smooth river-rocks. The water was crystal clear, until I plowed through it. lol. I'm too afraid to take mine swimming like some of the pix in this thread.. Not until I finish my lift on it, and maybe have some form of insurance I won't suck water in the engine.
