[QUOTE="cmjust0, post: 277723, member: 2882"] My dad ran my brother's Tundra halfway into Norris Lake in TN once.. They had a jetski to unload from the bed, so my dad was backing it down an auxiliary ramp to where the end of the tailgate touched the water.. What they didn't realize that the auxiliary ramp was only gravelled past a few feet in the water, and the gravel was pretty much gone. They got the jetski unloaded, so my dad put'er in D and hit the gas.. The rears immediately lost traction and the bed pretty much disappeared into the lake before he even realized what was going on. He hit the brakes and it sliiiiiiid to a stop, just as water got to the bottom right of the driver's door. He couldn't find the 4WD shifter and everybody was yelling "It's a button!!" but he was freakin' out to bad to understand... :lol: Finally he calmed down enough to hit the button and pulled right out.. Other than the taillights being completely full of water and my SIL having used some choice language in front of the family, there was no harm done. Could have been MUCH worse. To this day, that little incident is among the funniest things I've ever witnessed. :lol: [/QUOTE]
