For many 4x4 lovers, water crossings provide the most exhilarating, unforgettable experience; however, they can offer challenges of their own.
These challenges are sometimes not for the faint hearted and have proven to be the most expensive.
The actual depth that you can cross depends on the height of your vehicle and its ground clearance. The general rule remains; if the water is above your wheels, it is probably too deep to cross mate.
A video of a Toyota Hilux went viral on social media recently with many users applauding the driver for his bravery; others claim it is the power of Toyota that got him through the river, while the rest humorously said that his Bush Lapa pushed him through successfully.
Did the Bushlapa caravan push the Toyota Hilux through the water crossing? or Should Toyota consider manufacturing vehicles that can also serve as boats?
Here's what happened when one extremely lucky 4x4 Overlander found himself in some deep water.
