When we had our Nashville Flood my wife and myself were out everyday helping people with my XJ.
Water coming up to the windshield and barely coming in the doors lol
Drove a kid across about 5' of rushing water because the hospital was on the other side and the family mini van wasn't going to make it through.
Destroyed the ball joints after a week of driving through 3'-5' of water but it was worth it.

I pray for everybody their and everybody comes out Ok.
Not a fun time loosing almost everything in floods.

Maybe I'm wrong but if I drove across five feet of flowing water, my xj would prolly float away. with a 5.5" lift, my hood isn't even 4 feet. Either way it's good to see you helping peeps out

My fiance lives in manville and they got it real bad there. Was able to get into the town with the combined efforts of my xj and kayak. My buddy and I went and out and saw these trucks sitting there for 3 days after they got stuck. Can't believe they just let them there for so long.... The xj saw some pretty good action in the flooding.
