There wasn't a Rav in sight ;):D:D
Id do that crossing in the rav. Wouldn't even need a tarp over the bonnet at that river flow ;) in fact if I thought I would get away with it(probably not) I would do it in the swift at that level.Quote:

Mine flashes the seat belt light if I put it on after I start it .....or before I start it....I forget which now I dont notice it anymore:D other than that its sweet.
At the very start of the year I was co driver in my mates surf when he decided to cross a salt water river 2m deep 20m wide and flowing at about 15knots...there literally was no bottom as all the sand was boiling in the current, ironically it was the current that saved us when we fell into a hole it was all that pushed us out... I will admit that that is not rav country,surf only suffered alternator failure and probably premature rust out.Quote:

We have an old RAV as a beach hack, does nicely.
Need to find a towbar for it as the new boat will be too heavy for the quad.
