Hangang dibdib in the vicinity of Mandaluyong muncipal hall in the 80's. It was with my Isuzu Luv big foot pick-up.
33 inch wheel diameter + 12 inches lift. Sarap ng feeling when you know it's deep & driving no sweat cause the
water level barely touches the oil pan with exhaust pipe up to the roof top. Everyone staring on the car cause they
see it as if it's floating in the water.

I used to have a mitsubishi adventure which was bought bnew way back in 1998 or 99. During a severe typhoon i was driving to manila from baguio and got re-routed somewhere in pangasinan because of heavy flooding in urdaneta, had to cross a span of road that was submerged in 2.5 of running water. It was scary but got thru it naman and my adventure before did not have any problem from it.

Nailusong ko sasakyan ko sa baha sa mandaluyong kagabi pagkatapos nung malakas na ulan. Lagi ko naman nagagawa to dati kaso bagal ng movement kagabi kasi maraming padyak sa kalsada to accomodate yung mga commuters. More than 3/4 ng gulong submerged for more than 5 mins bagal ng usad minsan full stop pa. Umilaw din battery indicator iniisip ko baka inabot ang alternator. Nawala din naman after a few mins. Is there a cause for concern?

hmmmm. probably the deepest one I got was around 15 years ago, I was using my carbed lancer singkit then.
buendia area, going to slex, in front of grepalife.
hood level yung tubig.... nothing was in my mind except for me go home after an urgent work at the office (I was in data center management then).

sa loob, basang basa na din yung legs ko, and katakot takot na dasal ginawa ko, makatawid lang.

nakatawid naman ng hindi tumirik.

however, since wala pa akong masyadong alam sa oto nun, after kung makauwi, hinayaan ko na lang....

after one week, palit ako lahat ng joints, bushing and CV.... kinalawang lahat.

second highest was when I was still in college. headlight level, espana... I was using my VW beetle then.....
but knowing that these beetles are really ok in floods, nakatawid ako.... and wala naming nangyari sa oto.

ngayon, cars are equipped with ECUs.... lumampas kalahating gulong lang ang baha, nagpapatila na ako.

More than a decade ago. Using a 1st gen pajero. Nasa headlights na ang tubig. Tyres were larger than stock pero konti lang naman inangat nito. Now since puro sedan na, naghihintay na lang mawala muna ang baha
