Older automobiles hate salt the worst. Beach living can damage a car’s paint and frame, causing rust. This implies no one would consider driving a historic car down a cliff. According to 7 News Australia, engineers, swimmers, and off-roaders have accomplished this recently. Over 30 passengers crossed Darwin Harbor in a 1978 Toyota Land Cruiser named “Mudcrab.” To get from one end of the port to the other, 4.3 miles away, the SUV would drive 30 meters (almost 100 feet) below the ocean floor instead of across a bridge. Boats take only minutes. Water-covered cars take slower to travel the same distance. The 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser will be good, but not out of the box. A combustion engine couldn’t have gone that far. A custom water-resistant electric motor powered the 1978 LandCruiser. They drove an electric car underwater. Three hundred thirty pounds of water per tire stopped the automobile. It’s been done. However, it’s fantastic. Drivers and divers attempted to drive a Land Cruiser with a sealed engine across the bay in 1983. However, some seals failed, cancelling the plan. The team didn’t have to put a combustion engine in 100 feet of water this time. The saltwater has snakes and sharks. Flags chained to the boat were used to lift it out of the muddy ocean floor. Two 12 hours were spent elevating the automobile over an undersea gas pipe. Deep water pressure prompted drivers to switch every 15 minutes. The Mudcrab won around 9 p.m. Talk to them if Elon Musk wants the Cybertruck to cross water. A few years ago, Dirt Every Day placed a Cummins diesel engine in a unique Jeep and drove it underwater.
