Water wading / fording -- EV versus Harvester models?

[variable430]

No air intake or exhaust to worry about, I assume the EV only will be able to go swimming in deeper water than the harvester?

Even with the Harvester, you could make sure it is off while fording, using only the battery for the short time you are in the water. I would think it wouldn't be that hard to design an air intake that is self-draining and/or seals shut when the Harvester is off.
