Many many years ago, my father decided to take us off-roading in our Laredo after church in the UP of Michigan. Way back into a two rut, we came across a puddle, maybe 20 feet long. My mom tried to talk him out of it, but he went for it. We bottomed out. We spent the next hour jamming branches under the tires in our Sunday best. Ready to go, we climbed in, and the jeep wouldn't start. My brother and my dad then went for help. A long time later, they returned with an old timer that quickly found a loose connection, I think it was the distributor, but I can't recall. We then rolled right out. My mother was not pleased.
