Surfrunner has met its match. But I do think, that once they free it from the clutches of the earth, it would breath again. The Top Gear Toyota was lashed to a mooring as the tide came in, only to break free and sink. They recovered it and with some very basic tools got her to fire up.

Pretty common actually. Normally more like this...
Tide comes in fast. Some people don't know what they are doing, get themselves stuck and don't have proper recovery, next thing you know truck's toast.

My grandfather was a fire chief at a city on Floridas east coast in the 50's and 60's. He told me that they would sometimes run "Big Red" down the beach after tide came in and help pull some unfortunates back to safety. Of course back then you never worried about water doing much damage to electronics since there really weren't a lot on vehicles.
