I would have to Win a bag o f $ to pay bills before contemplating such luxury=strictly for those who have a fist full of $ (millions that is).

my 5 month old puppy climed on my lap & watched it while sniffing and touching the keyboard: guess he wanted to board it or turn off the laptop which almost happened.

Wonder how long that would last with rust, leaks etc even in fresh water. Floods? Natural disasters?

I wasn't particularly impressed with that oversized soup can until the very end of the video when Good Morning America, [circa 2003!!] came on and did the spiel about an interview with the first amphibious RV owner!! First thing that entered my mind was, "Hmmm, I wonder what that rig would look like if it rolled off the assembly line TODAY??"

Not even interested, think of the upkeep this would demand $$$!

Just don't know what to say, other than I think the ramp would need to be shallow in rise...and didn't particularly like the GLOSSY Teak. They have some interesting toys though, on their site and interesting engineering overall. Jury's out on "what goes wrong first" and for the price...you could probably buy a pontoon boat, a used Sanger or Ski Nautique, a normal rv and a small plane.

And the winner is...All of you gentlemen! I must admit you guys carefully covered just about everything I would question about it unless the sales man said I was also possible to drive it to planet Mars. Thanks guys!
