He actually backed down the ramp and went all the way under water with the truck.
I read about it on a boating forum a few months ago. It was somewhere on the left
coast. Some of the readers recognized the cruise boat in the background.

My buddy lost his 3500 dodge that way and I was there for the whole thing.The weight of the water in the cab was so heavy that they tore the bumper off (extremely heavy duty welded bumper and grill guard)tryin to pull his truck out so then the diver got it around the tire and ripped the lugs out!They finally strapped it through the cab and destroyed it gettin it up until they could hook it to the frame!My point is that I cant imagine them turning this rig around in the water by just the boat trailer and it still be intact!!!
