Needless to say, I couldn’t.

The water measured 4 feet where I stopped moving. In addition to the wet interior, I also flooded the center console which had my Nikon D80 SLR, Nikon CoolPix 5200 point and shoot camera, JVC CD player, CB, and BlackBerry Storm…

After being saved from the middle of the lake, we pulled the plugs and cranked til the water was gone… It fired up and idled a little rough, but was able to make it back through the lake (this time staying to the side!) and back up the hill to make it back on the trails. It made it 20~ miles back home without a problem. Fluids changed (which came out looking similar to a McDonalds milkshake) and it seems to be running pretty well. Now hopefully the smell will be able to come out of the seats too. :)
