Weird. My 2009 Ranger with 160k miles still pulls its 31 inch tires at over 90mph to the beach just fine. My old Focist ST took a hell of a beating cause I drove it like it was stolen and it was fine too.
The problem is the massive flooding way past the typical riverbed because of the massive amount of water waiting to be released. If they slowly emptied the lake it would be very different where the water line goes.
Abortion?
