This is the car I almost lost in the Sacramento river and possibly also my life. I had launched my boat on the city pad not knowing the tide was out - my back wheels got off the concrete into the mud and I started slipping backwards - soon my back seat was under water had to keep the engine running or it would suck up water and ruin the engine - finally after over an hour they succeeded in pulling me back on the concrete and the ordeal was over - the car was full of water and I soon traded it in.
