Ford Endeavour Water Crossing Off-Roading
The other vehicles got through the water crossing relatively easily. The Mahindra Scorpio (4×2) got stuck and had to be pulled out. The same fate awaited a Mahindra Thar which was also using the 4×2 mode only. It was also towed out of the water. When the turn of the Endeavour came, the driver went to the deeper side of the river which was too deep. As a result, the left side of the SUV got inundated in the water. The water level reached the window height. The water started entering the cabin. It was not long before the water started filling the driver’s side and boot. The tow hook was tied to the SUV somehow and after a lot of effort, the SUV was finally recovered from the water. The video shows the water coming out after the revival of the SUV. This is an incident that highlights the importance of staying patient during such a situation and also not to try something like this in the first place unless it is extremely important.
