Water tight

Is it true that 3rd Gen Tacomas are watertight up to the door handles?

Rofl! Definitely not.

No. You will have issues with water as high as your door handles.

Actually, I’ve had mine in water to the hood, almost to the door handles. No leaks. But it was dumb luck and I wouldn’t try it.

Probably just the wake but if you stopped, you would have had water everywhere inside and the engine would have hydrolocked.

No doubts. I had no idea the water/mud was that deep. If I’d have let up and stopped it’d leaked more than likely.
No vehicle is completely water tight. If you actually plan on treading water that deep buy a boat.

True. Shoulda took more pics. That was after the first automatic car wash. The rest had to be hand scrubbed.

Sorry to disappoint you. I married a Mexican/Puerto Rican girl from Alaska in Texas.

All clear now?

Holy Crap, Bogunn! That picture is awesome!

Her name was Magill and she called herself Lil. But everyone knew her as Nancy.

So when is the hydrolock party happening?

She’s Hispanic. I’m Irish.

Two families.

No designated driver!
