Stuck at Cape York

[DaveB]

The John Canny video of his trip to Cape York (Part 1) shows you part of the PDR:

I just watched part 3 while having a morning tea break. Unfortunately you can't see any footage of the 4th vehicle crossing
The first three have snorkels/RAI's and it looks pretty deep.
Unfortunately no footage of the 4th vehicle was taken.
It would have been interesting to see how a vehicle with no snorkel or RAI handled water this deep.
The video just cuts to a splash screen with a simple large statement with an !!!!!!

I give it 10 days and there will be another video from the US YouTuber My Ineos obsession. Follow by TFL with breaking news. This is not going away until Ineos PR shuts it down. I don't think they owe us anything but from a PR standpoint either they need to step up or someone needs to take a new Prado/LC set it on fire. Then say it was a hybrid issue

There has been a LC250 fire in the last week in Australia. That had a comment free for all which is the norm for any Toyota misfortune here in Australia. No brand is immune from creator videos or crucifixion by comments. Even Fords release of the Ranger Superduty in Australia has copped the comment and video flogging.

So we can escape the heat, and breathe easy!
Those with snorkels , which is a small few.
Speaking of escaping the heat , name your Aussie poison today!

I think they chose not to include it. Regardless the 4th car was on the track and it had to make the river crossing. You see the cars together later.

That was a strange message to post, but doors and vans have seals, the airbox much less so, especially if you have no RAI. Again none of the posted videos addresses, talks about or even mentions the cars going over the max wading depth - the silence is deafening.

I feel you might be right and maybe the 4th vehicle footage ended up...as they say.....on the cutting room floor.

14.7 degrees and cycling through heavy rain and sunshine in Melbourne and its the first day of summer! Who says climate change aint real! (Four seasons in one day, lying in the depths of your imagination, worlds above and worlds below, the sun shines on the black clouds hanging over the domain....)

Yes, the elephant in the room.

The owner got a good result, then they put the second video out - wow just wow.

Cool day 31C overcast and only 54% humidity. I'll have a few Qld peasant beers later and watch the cane fires next door.
