Personally the deepest I'd atempt in my truck is up to the doors and floor boards. The thought of my interior getting wet doesn't appeal to me. Up to that point I'd say everything else should be fine. Just don't hit it too fast. When I offroad I tend to creep until I know what I'm getting into. Have fun and bring back some pics to post!

"would" or "have"?

I'd tend to stay somewhere between the pumpkin and bottom of the door. However, I've also found a nice surprise while crossing at door level. I found a deeper spot on the driver side and water was up well beyond the bottom of the windshield. Fortunately the air intake was on the passenger side, but the engine still wasn't happy.

"Here be dragons", or at least unexpected deep spots.
