There is no, no trespassing sign there has never been one, just a construction site and the worst thing i did was leave some tire marks, no damage to anything.

Do you work there or do they care if they hit the mud holes?

A AL lawyer is going to be the one to go to for advice. Buick Guy is spot on. Different states,different laws. Did you intentionally drive into the construction site? Did you drive around construction cones, cation tape ect? Why did you drive into a large deep water hole? Just a few questions they are going to ask you. I already gave you the best advice there is,put nothing on social media. That's the first place my brother goes to get the real story. He can see all of your stuff legally . This is why I don't do social media.

See why would you need tape and cones? It's work site, you know it, I know it we all know it so why fight something you know for a fact your in the wrong for? Lets say it's a trap right? The guys that work the site just need to say it was part of the job to make a it deeper not their fault some kid wants to get his truck muddy here. Case and point you know what you did was wrong and should have never been there, take this as a life lesson and drive on.

I have no one to blame, but myself. I'm not denying it. It was my bad not the construction sites. I take full responsibility for this, and if my truck is salvageable you better believe i'll be working to pay it off.
And as far as the social media thing, this is the last thing I would put on social media.

Have you met Kyle yet? He totaled his H3 ****ing around and hit a concrete pole. Also popped the side air bags doing power slides. I did some ****ed up **** when I was a kid. But damn!

I'm a young and a noob at insurance claims especially like a claim like this. But if he does have full coverage shouldn't insurance pay for it. Or is this different that a regular accident? Now I understand if he has liability then he is screwed...

Take your truck out onto a frozen lake to go ice fishing. Rig falls in,your not covered. Take your car to the drag strip,bounce it off a wall,your not covered. Just a few samples standard full coverage won't cover. You can have special things added to your policy,but you pay dearly.

Don't some insurances have like a off roading policy you can buy? I think I read it on a jeep forum

to be abundantly clear - what triggers my concern is "I went through it before without trouble"....

you could be right - but he really needs to talk to an attorney in Alabama who can analyze the facts under Alabama law. The stuff I'm talking about is law school stuff - which is the fundamentals of law - states can and do change trespassing laws, but where the laws started tends to make it fairly easy to issue spot.

My truck is covered as long as it is on a mapped trail and not a race or anything like that or competition. Yeah paid more for the policy plus what was added to my rig. It gets totalled and i score. Something like this in happens I'm probably assed out. Hard lesson learned. Tread lighlty! ripping through a construction area is still as bad as iff trail in my opinion. Just sayin. Although I do like doughnuts behind the cvs in Santa Clarita in the dirt lot.

Although things look grim, I am optimistic the situation is not as bad as it looks. I have seen other trucks in deeper water, as long as water didn't enter the engine he still has a shot. The true question is how long was the h3 under water and did the h3 shut down on its own while in the water?

Don't try to turn on the truck for at least a week to let everything dry.

We're not going to insurance for it, because most likely they'll say it's totaled then they will jack my insurance so high that I won't beable to drive anymore. I'm going to the truck tomorrow. What are the first steps i need to take? I was going to drain all fluids, take out my maf and pcm and spray those down with maf cleaner and get them out and into a bag of rice. But what about the interior are the seats and everything screwed?
