The incident occurred on Tahuna Rd near Ohinewai.
A police spokeswoman says the truck drove into a ditch and went "completely underwater" in what was believed to be flooding caused by heavy rainfall.
The motorist clambered out of the driver's window of the truck... and is uninjured.
New Zealand Transport Agency has warned of flooding on the roads in the area north of Huntly.
