Fresh water..maybe. If they can get everything dried out properly.

I think a Hilux can be melted down in a blast furnace and still run, they are practically indestructible. And of course unavailable in US.

I've seen that work in Spain after a car rental garage got flooded in several feet of water. However in Canada, where this particular incident took place, a flooded car is immediately written off by insurance.
