Front end looks like it’s exceeding the recommend depth. But the sides of the truck still look ok. Hey that’s great if the truck can do this without damage.
Bow wave. You can make a really big bow wave by PUNCHING it :)

I plowed through some high standing water in OBX after a tropical depression rolled through. Water was maybe a foot, 15” deep, I watched the peasant cars go through and so I wanted to impress my wife the Rap’s capabilities. Eventually I got going fast enough that water was everywhere and we couldn’t see.

oops. My bad.

:p

It’s good that happened because I’d have totally impaled the peasant car in front us, who, in abject panic, came to a complete stop in the 2nd or 3rd standing water pond. Because that’s the way you do it in NC apparently.

We waited patiently for them to recover their courage and once again depress the accelerator.

With the Raptors brick of a front profile, I imagine you can make that water bow and flow pretty easily. I’d be Leary of the intake inlet.

Meh. If you look, the water is breaking around the truck, taking the path of least resistance, which is not the grille or intake.

as my old neighbor would say: Nyet. Truck is fine.
