Check out this 4x4/Waverunner combination video. I about wet my pants!

Who wants one? How cool would that be to take to the trails after a big rain? And I've got the slogan... "Stuck? Just "jet" your way out!!"

Pretty slick...Very James Bond-ish

I think I would split that hull open fairly quickly around here. Perfect if you live on a lake or for on the beach though.

That thing looks like a boat first, and 4x4 second. It's probably OK for around here where are lots of lake and river access points. Probably wouldn't work so well in rocky places where you'll be more than likely to bang and scrape the hull so badly.

Yes, bigger tires or the hull wouldn't survive the Colorado Rockies.

I believe that is from a UK company called Gibbs Technologies. They don't just make those little things they make a bad arse all out amphibious vehicle and a car to boot. They are trying to get a military contract with one of their vehicles. Check em out http://www.gibbstech.co.uk/

No it is real, the Aquada (Gibbs Tech's amphibious car) won one of Time Magazines best inventions awards. The company is legit.

Wow...how fun is that! If you could have the snow wheel tracks kit like ATVs have, you can have a ATV, a jet ski, and a rig for snow all in one machine! That would be awesome, a vehicle for every season! Pair that with the Libby to tow, you can really go anywhere and do anything! I would worry about damaging the underneath though, there are too many rocks and ruts and all. I think it needs some sort of armour, and a bit more lift to it to really be functional.
