    The reason the 2 shops wont touch is its going to cost more than the truck is worth and still will have problems in the future . Even if you are mechanical it's not going to add up .

    To each his own opinion.

    Full disclosure: My son is a Toyota / Lexus Certified Service Technician. Graduated number one in his Toyota T-Ten program at college. I may occasionally seek his professional opinion on certain subjects - like this one. And you? Boom!

    Lol you sure did.

    But back to the original topic, I'm curious as to what the outcome will be after all the fluids have been changed and it sits to air dry.
    OP, any update on what you plan on doing?

    One the body computers become submerged that will start the gremlins running through the truck.

    Better to let it go...ever wonder why there is an insurance total called flood damage?

    They have been down that path before...as for @96carboard I do not know you but I know of your kind that believe what they say no matter what and double down when proven wrong.

    So you can put me on your block list but I will not block you as reading you has become a past time of its own.

    Keep the flooded truck as an off-roader and buy a new daily. I’d buy a car, then I have a truck that can go off-road/ haul and a good daily with the comforts lol

    If we put cardboard in a bathtub with a toaster, we will find out if cardboard is waterproof and electrically conductive.
