Here in the Northwest, we are experiencing a bit more than our normal November. With that comes lots of standing water - some of it is to the top of the curbs and you can't always go around due to other traffic in adjacent lanes or even detours. Does anyone know of a downside to getting trapped into one of these situations where you have to drive through (and it isn't always slowly)?
My concern is specifically directed towards the battery pack getting wet. Is there more protection to it than just the cover that is bolted along the bottom? If there is a pan inside, how high are the sides? I didn't think to look at this when they were doing the rollout tours last winter. Maybe this isn't an issue.
I realize you aren't supposed to drive through water without knowing how deep it is so please don't flame me on that. I'm talking about water that could be up to the floorboard.
