Should have waited for the Maverick...

Saw this on the news tonight. I got the picture from Menifee Police Department Facebook feed.

Caption for the photo:
We know it’s been so hot for too long, but if you need to cool off or your truck overheats, we don’t recommend driving into a pool! #creativecooling #trucksdontfloat

The driver was able to get out and swim to safety. Luckily, no one was hurt. Our officers had a tough time taking the collision measurements at the bottom of the pool! #cophumor

Remember to stay hydrated in the heat. #MenifeePD

Seems like I’ve seen this one before, but it’s not a maverick anyway.

I love the Mav, but the Dodgetoon is the apex of truck boat engineering. Guess you can't drive it on land, but it has taken its rightful place in the East Tennessee Redneck Hall of Fame.

Looks like it's either a Maverick or a Ranger.

I'm not seeing that curve from the cab to the bed and the front headlights look like a Ranger to me, but I guess I would need some scuba gear to confirm.

Agreed, certainly looks like a separate bed.

Definitely a Ranger. I wonder how it ended up in the pool?

Now if it was a Maverick, with one of them rotary-dial gear selectors... "Is reverse clockwise or counter-clockwise?"

Officer, waited 12 months for my Maverick. Couldn't wait any longer and bought the Ranger.

Didn’t know you could get the Everglades package on a Ranger.

Hope he didnt get the ceramic coating. It's not supposed to get wet for the first month.

Drive thru car washes in California are very different than Michigan

It took the owner a long time to decide what vehicle he wanted but then decided to take the plunge.
