Someone lost a Focus RS in Friendswood, a suburb southeast of Houston. The loss in Houston has been tremendous for so many. It’s so heartbreaking to see thousands of people lose everything . And it’s not over yet. Hopefully the lull we’re in at the moment will give things a chance to drain a bit before it picks back up.

If only they had a set of jack stands. That’s close enough that they might’ve been able to save it if they had it on fully extended jack stands.

Funny you say that. I found that picture in a  Reddit thread where someone posted this picture of how he saved his car.

I would still be worried about the water pushing it over.

While that sucks, if that person is okay, they should be thankful.

RIP Focus.

A responsible owner would have secured to to the ground or the house with a rope. Last thing Houston needs is have a Mustang a drift to run into flood survivors.

Absolutely. Lives are way more important than things. And the person who lost their focus probably has way more important things to worry about than their car at the moment, especially considering some in the Meyerland area are being airlifted out right now.

We may actually have to evacuate if that becomes the case.

It’s probably wet but not completely dead as that probably isn’t salt water.

It depends if the car was just flooded while parked or was driven into the water.

It does but that poor one seems to be in a garage.
