sold... interesting even though best case it would need a donor truck.Boat ramp oops maybe? Mechanical diesel swap fodder? HVAC and interior electronics will probably never work again, lol.

A couple years before I had a work term for the forest district, one of their trucks was submerged under fresh water. After six months of repairs and then flaking out, they sold it at scrap prices even though it was almost new. Newer vehicles don't fare well when dunked under.
Not like old Land Cruisers. Many years ago I drove through a stream up to the glovebox in my 40. I know fresh water isn't as bad, and it didn't sit, but I just drove through the other side. 2-3 weeks later I found that the distributor cap was shot... after having water sit in it half way up the cap (water line) the corrosion was 1/8" thick, the rotor was knocking it off the terminals. For some reason it was no longer idling smoothly. When I here about vehicles that won't run because of condensation in a distributor cap, I remember that cap that I'd sealed wit silicone, removed, and put back on without resealing... A points distributor filled with water all the way to the midline of the cap... F a little moisture. 45,000 volt coil and an MSD... seemed to do the job.
