Latest Ford killing news headline:
"Falcon can't deliver for underwater motoring" Shocking scenes today witnessed by many as a strandard falcon could not be started under 1.5m of saltwater, the only option for it to be towed away. Experts believe if it was say a Toyota Aurion, the car could have managed to be started, driven through the deep end and back onto the boat ramp with minimal fuss, also with a good dry out in the sun to be bought back to new. Does this spell the end for Ford Australia? The way its going it wouldnt surprise me to find this dribble in one of the next few papers |

Look at the ramp though boys, it shouldn't of pulled him down.
And if that's the boat he should of had two people there But anyways, never have tried putting boat in with a 2WD. Then again our ramps are slippery and very steep and make 4WD's smoke tyres

LOL at the ford not being Powerful enough to Tow that boat.
Seen a friend put his Dad's 24-26ft Boat in with a 4Cyl Rodeo, now pulling it out was fun to watch, not to sure if there was more Smoke coming off the Tyres or the Clutch LOL

For how far out it is from the ramp I'd say it got a bit of push from either another car or from it's own engine.
My guess- Someone put the car in R for Race
