Have you guys seen this? I think it's pretty cool. I'd love to see the look on peoples faces when you drive this thing down the boat ramp into the water. LOL

I'm liking that thing except it looks kind of high buck to me.

Re: Water car

Well now wait a minute. Let's see!!!

I have a truck that pulls the boat to the water.
My wife has a convertible.
If we had one of these then I wouldn't need so many others. Right?????

Re: Water car

The one in the video starts at $200,000 according to his website. It is a jet propulsion system. Go root around the site and check out some of the pictures. It is actually pretty cool.

Re: Water car

Amphibious cars have been around for decades. Check out the Amphicar from the 50's. I don't see how he got $200K price from a simple Berkley-style jet pump that have been used since the 60's and can be found for less than a couple grand.

To each his own though. The real test would be when you take a good wave that comes into the cab of the vehicle, then you sink.
