I'm pretty sure you can hear a kid crying in the very beginning. I don't blame him though, I would be a little nervous myself.

I never understood ideas like that....why make a vehicle that sucks to drive on land and water just so you have both in one vehicle?

i saw one of those in person at a car museum once. pretty cool idea despite being almost completely unnecessary.

Kinda cool, but what do you do with it??? Drive around and look for lakes to drive into??


I wonder how long it can float for?? I'm thinking if you had one, load up all your fishing gear and some booze/food in the rear seat, drive to a lake, drive in, and spend a few hours fishing...then drive out and head home. No need to tow a boat to the lake although a specialized fishing boat would be much more practical

wow it looks like that guy was having a real tough time steering it and getting the motor to work. imagine if you hit something...in a normal boat, u bump stuff all the time like docks, retaining walls...do that in a car and u need body work!
