MuleShack Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Definitely comes off as pretty cool. However maintenance looks to be a pain in the a$$. The wheels look pretty small. Too many moving parts. Does it have two motors or the one switches from hydro drive back to a gear box? Generally things that cover two specialties are not great in either one. With that said, I wouldn't mind test driving one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nofishfisherman Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Looks like the wheel base is also wider than a traditional ATV. That could make for a fun ride when the wheels don't line up with the ruts on an existing ATV trail. I've been on numerous trails cut just wide enough for an ATV with pretty good groves worn in over the years. If this thing is wider like it appears it might be a tight fit. But then again maybe I'm just on small trails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TruthWalleyes Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Those cars that also float don't seem to have much of a purpose...But some people buy em i guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballyhoo Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 It does both but unfortunately neither very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
