Notices
JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Offroading is great, until.....

There's water in everything. Oil, differentials, probably the transmission, the electronics went crazy.
Jeep's towing it as I type this.
Yikes! I don't like mud holes for this very reason. Just my luck, I would find the deep hole.

Well, insurance is having the shop look over it and assess the damage for the next couple of days. He said that it looks like it might be totaled, but were going to look at repairs and discus all the options beforehand. Offhand without a list of mods he told me its worth 30. Seems low to me but again that's without a full pricing of the cost of mods.

Just glad to hear that insurance is going to take care of this one. Would really suck if all you got out of the deal is a pile of regret and a whole lot of "you should have known better" from them.

Insurance is going to cover this? (nice to hear) but would be great to know how you explained to get into the situation, offroading is normally excluded.....

Well, the technicalities of it all and the time that it happened made it very easy to explain. I mean technically I was on a road and there was supposed to be a bridge there... With all the rain and all....and the almost tornado the night before in the area....

Just got off the phone with the insurance guy, the damage isn't extensive at all and they are fixing it.
He's going to call me back tomorrow and give me an etr on 'er.
