Nice work getting him out. One reason why it's always a good idea to run in pairs.

Drying out carpet sucks! Nice work on finding him and getting him outta there. I can imagine he sat in there for a good amount of time. Looks like a good time to change some diff fluids and pray to the wheel bearing gods.

It was funny just picturing him standing on top of his 4runner so he could get a call out to us with one bar lol. We kept having to stop and honk at one another to find the way. It's huge that people do not go off solo and elevate the dangers for themselves which he learned. we had to move faster once he told us his truck was slowly filling with water.

Some techniques that I have never seen before.
In gear, wheels spinning and no one in the drivers seat, a tow out again without a driver.
Time to strip the interior and hose it out.
