MT-Ford

Driving across the bridge and I spotted him about 1/2 mile downriver. I got there quick to give assistance if needed. As I was driving down there across the big rocks, I was thinking "I sure wish I had my F150 with me" but I was driving my Ranger today instead. Surprisingly enough, I was able to pull him out with the Ranger!

What a feet for the mighty Ranger!

It's awesome that you were able to help and hopefully there were no injuries. Swift moving water can quickly make a water crossing a bad day.

The mighty Ranger! I still regret selling mine.

One of the cops said to me..."Ummm..You pulled that out with that Ranger??" They were surprised to say the least. Me and another guy in a full sized Chevy were the first ones there and he wasn't going to have any part of hooking up to that F150.

Would that be a total loss?

It was still running surprisingly enough, otherwise I don't think I would have been able to pull it out just dead weight. That thing poured out water for over a minute. I don't think that is a truck I would want to own after that! The cop did end up driving it out under it's own power to the bridge access.

What in the hell was he doing?

MT-Ford

With the river being lower than normal this year I think he thought it was tame enough to have some 4x4 fun. No common sense now a days

He is lucky he didn't ingest a bunch of water into the motor.

Well the air intake is up high on the driver side fender, so that may have saved it.
