off roading ooopsies!
 
with a couple of buddies out one night at a developing neighborhood near by, my stock blazer, 2 stock nissan exterras.
it was a night after a decent rainfall and we were plowing through some puddles and i came up to one, entered, and it was DEEP. i powered my way through it and felt my rear differential spank on the bottom :eek: get out with 2in of water in the cab :D... on the drive home my rear end was making odd noises and vibrations.
which resulted in the breaking of all 4 spyder AND the ring n pinion gears from hitting my differential.

Ha. You're lucky you didn't find a storm sewer ditch or some other underground utility ditch. That'll eat your whole truck.
