My New Boat!!!!! =/ kinda

The Cobalt SS is now the SS Cobalt at least for a little bit. Drove on a road that didnt look that flooded..... was fine. 500 feet later we hit another area with water. This way wasnt as shallow. Sucked some water in through the intake. doesnt seem to have messed anything up fortunately. still cranks smooth, just water in the lowe rintake we think. Pulled the plugs and had water. after sucking it out multiple times, we decided to use a tow strap and pull it home. Gonna leave work early and come home to pull the blower and possibly the lower intake and make sure all the water is gone........ This sucks =/

ON THE BRIGHT SIDE I PROBABLY WONT NEED NEW INTERNALS!...... and if i do, well i guess i just get to purchase some upgraded parts for my car

Wow that sucks; I thought you south guys got spared most of the flooding. All we have is a lot of trees down but no damage here however all the roads are flooded out west and north of me. Saw a big tree down here in Glen Ellyn that crushed some guy's Dodge Stratus.

got off work early and about to go pull the blower and suck the rest of the water out and make sure the air filter is not soaked and change the oil.
