This video was recorded 2 years ago. I always have confidence when crossing flooded areas with my honda city 2006. Countless of times ive crossed without problems. Ang taas kasi ng air intake nito. hindi ako binigo, at hindi talaga ako natatakot. i was even been able to cross a street where SUV's didnt dare to cross lol. i was just lucky?

That same day, our 2007 CRV good hydro locked. My mom was the one who was driving it haha. That day changed our perception with the CRV, we never trusted the CRV when its raining and flooding. Sira ang engine ng CRV. cracked engine, bent conrods. Dont ask how much was the repair hahaha! but i was also skeptical on why hindi kinaya ng CRV, sabi ko impossible. or maybe the water that day was just too deep. lady drivers talaga hehe our kia rio got flooded inside the cabin but no damage, no damage to engine etc.
And now, just a while ago, *******ial rain fell. I was driving again our CRV because i left my Civic FD sa CASA for servicing.
Knowing that this CRV got broke 2 years ago because it engulfed water, i got so nervous crossing the floods!! i was so scared. but finally i made it "alive: lol.

after this event, umiingay yung belts ng CRV. nabasa. but i was happy i made it through!
i wonder kung kaya din ba ng FD ang baha? nasaan ba ang air intake nito? also sa CRV, nasaan ba? hindi ko kasi makita yung opening eh. hindi ba sila CAI?
ive seen sorentos (previous model) crossing rivers. i wonder kung ano din capability ng new model.
