NOW we're getting somewhere...

Can RVs be far behind (Class A to Houseboat)??? I knew they had this car over in England a few years ago. Figured it would die out. Apparently not... Not bad price either (I believe the price when it first came out was ~$125K. Love the ATV. I want one of those (the "military" equipped one - what a great hunting ATV)...

I LOVE IT DAVE!

I've always wanted one since I saw the first Amphicar!









I bet Amphicar would be shocked to hear that the concept is back on the street with an $85K price tag! Guess I'll have to wait until the next lifetime.

Brad, we have one of those around here. Saw it once last year and the wife saw it again this year when I wasn't home. As you can see from our sig, we have a great view of the lake and the boat ramp.

This "Aqua" colored car comes up the lake and out up the boat ramp without even missing a beat. Does sit real low in the water though with two people in it...

That would be fun to watch Dave, even better to ride! I have a feeling that new one clips along pretty good in the water - I think it said 30mph

Brad, I've only seen him run that car in the morning when the lake is calm. That Quadski (camo) is my favorite.

Re houseboats...they make our trucks look like economy cars. I had a HB that I sold in 2004...43', 23,000 lbs, twin 350 cu in 270hp V8s and twin 80 gallon fuel tanks.
