I am so sorry about your loss. I drove home in the rain today and hydroplaned through about a foot deep puddle. Luckily, I didnt have a problem going trough it.

Well good to hear everyone was alright, it could have been worse, but sad still one of our own had this happen. Atleast it's going to the big parking lot in the sky. Good luck man, hope it all works out in the end for you
