Title says it all. I didn't see a TH-specific thread yet for us to share photos of these out in the wild.

Here's my first test - Took it up to Broken Arrow Trail in Sedona, AZ less than 24 hours after purchasing it. Love this thing.

Second trail in the books - Attempted the Back Way to Sheep Bridge out here, north of Cave Creek, AZ. Unfortunately, didn't think to check one of the up-river Dam flows which had been opened so the water crossing was entirely way too deep. Found out after already crossing a pretty significantly deep section. First pic shows the first crossing. Second & third pics show where we had to stop and turn around - I walked out into the flow and it dropped down to my waist (the trail follows the flow of the water). We all had to turn around and ended up taking the 'normal' way to Sheep Bridge, which is just a ton of rocky fire road. Fourth & fifth pics are of us finally at the Sheep Bridge, which is a reconstruction of a historic bridge that was seasonally used to (you guessed it) cross sheep herds across the Rio Verde. Super cool swimming/camping spot with a rope swing off the bridge, and a hidden hot spring to boot.

The capability of this thing continues to impress me. No issues throughout the day whatsoever, and had a blast.

Fantastic! How deep did you ford?
The first crossing (first pic) was about 20 inches deep. I will say, I started to get a little nervous when I could hear the exhaust burbling from underwater, but the TH made it thru no problems. The second crossing was closer to 30 inches deep; way more than I was comfortable doing, and the current was pretty strong too. I stepped out into it as far as I could go to see how much it dropped off, and I ended up getting my balls wet just before being pushed downriver lol

Here's a full video of my crossing at the 2:40 mark; the GoPro video is also from being attached to my front bumper - should give you an idea how deep it was too 😆:

Kick ass - funny how all the haters thought the electronics would be ruined at those depths / electric cars have good water fording capability especially when the battery is in the cabin! Did the door seals keep out the water?

Sure did! The only water that got inside was from my wet shoes on the floor mat from me getting in and out of the truck after walking out to test depth.

MotorTrend just did a review article and said it's officially rated for 35" but they pushed it to 40"+ with no issue. They didn't quote a source so take for what it's worth.
