Or a Land Rover Defender. Which is more practical since you can still drive it everyday.

Yes. Best to keep off the clutch.

Looking at Niky's video clip (and finger ), lakas ng current and of course, the requisite trash.

18 wheeler? How about a Unimog para chedeng pa?

Always remember that your car is not a bangka so never make lusong in the baha
At doon naman sa mga nakikisakay lang, kung hindi niyo mahintay na bumaba ang baha,
kayo ang magsibaba! Have a nice sunny day :flower:

Yup. Slow and steady but stay in gear and don't slow down. With all the pedestrians... impossible.

As witnessed here:



Here's the flood as it is now:

2013 08 19 Typhoon Maring, Flooding in Biñan, Laguna - YouTube

Parked the truck up on the curb, safe from the water. Tried going down the street (had to check on other property)... only thigh deep, far below the intake, but the current and the large number of pedestrians made it difficult. Couldn't keep up enough speed behind them to stay off the clutch, and the buffetting from the waves was starting to stall the engine and soak the transmission. Had to abort.

You gotta know when to hold them...

Anong oto dala mo dito ser?

[niky]

The Crosswind. But I did not drive it. I left it there. Safer pa.

Note: Di sa akin yung Southwoods pic. I ain't suicidal enough to get on the highway during a flood.
