Default Baby bro left truck in rain for a day

Ok so here's the situation I went to this camp for a day and by the Time I got back it was dark. The day after I got back from school I found out my baby bro left my truck in the rain for a day or two. Dude I swear that little kid could operate a excavator by himself he's so smart and the funny thing is he's only three!!!!! So what do you guys think, buy all new electronics or what? Tell me in the comments below.

Got a part of the house that gets good sunlight? Pull the electronics and lay them out in the sun for a few days, then try to power them up. If they fry or fail to work, then yeah, get new.

Charcoal work too, also knew a guy who dunked his phone a lot, he would put it in a zipper pocket of his winter coveralls, roll it up n a ball and put it in the dryer at the lowest setting. as long as you have not powered the system yet, you should be able to recover.

Put the electronics in a bag of rice and SEAL it. DO NOT take it out for at least 2 or 3 days. IT WORKS!!!!!!! I have TWO little brothers that act like hurricanes leaving a path of destruction EVERYWHERE they go so i know how you must feel.

BTW where are you in Cali?
