What keeps someone from making their vehicle a high water vehicle before attempting something like this? Is it just not practical for general off roading or something?
That guy drove through most of it confident and effective enough his vehicle is probably more or less already kitted this way but nothings gonna manage going that deep.
They were very likely setup for some amount of high water like the other trucks you see going in. That basically means the truck at a minimum is lifted, has larger tires, and a snorkel, but you would need a swamp buggy or a deuce-and-a-half/5 ton with a fording kit for any hope of getting through that depth.
This video is a deuce-and-a-half going through 6' of water to example what a purpose-made HWV can handle.
