Message If you live in south Florida, you would know that we've been having a SHIT LOAD of rain lately... Well, last night at 2:00 in the morning my dad comes to my room freaking out and saying that my car was practically under water. I slept through all this and just replied in my sleep, saying things like, "Buzz off," and, "I already checked it yesterday, go away." The latter making NO SENSE AT ALL. Well anyway, after I actually got up I reluctantly went downstairs to the door where my dad handed me a flashlight and an umbrella. I walked down to the end of the driveway and was pretty shocked. The water was everywhere, and so high! My feet were freezing in the ice cold water. Then I saw the Z. It wasn't as bad as my overreacting father made me think it was, but still, that water was too damn high. It was just below the door crack. It needed to be moved. I woke up my girlfriend and she steered the car as we pushed it in neutral. We finally got it to a neighbor's driveway where we let it stay the night. I got up this morning and drove it back to my house and checked everything out, and it's okay, but still... Thank God my dad woke up and told me or else that water woulda still went up and I woulda had a real nice smelling carpet in the Z the next day... :\ Not to mention other damage... :\ That saved me a lot of trouble. My mom's van a few years ago was totally destroyed by the same thing..
Anyway, I have a few pictures, here you go:
Look how high the water is on the car. Look at the rim..

Waterline ON THE CAR...


Safety... But now the rain has started up again, and got all over my camera!
