    Well to be fair I think it was more driver than truck/boat in this case. If he hadn't tried to make that quick turn I think it would have made it. Even so as per the 'Trying to Kill a Tacoma' episode all they had to do is pull it out of the water, dry out the plugs and it would have started up again! :)

    I've managed to drown a Touareg and a 4 runner, the Toaureg faired the better of the two. The all electronic ignition proved handy, you turn the key over and the computer cranks until it starts or for 30 seconds. I pulled all the plugs and turned the key and the computer did the rest, while I watched about a gallon of water pump out of it.
