I could so see me killing myself on one of those, but it would be the coolest death ever!!! :D 👍

This is true. 👍

Actually, I wonder how quick that thing is. I’m guessing it’s way too heavy to be quick…
 
I already have thoughts of driving it in ATV mode, hitting a big ramp, changing it to personal water craft mode in the air and then speeding away on the water as the girls flock to the water screaming for me to come pick them up and make sweet, sweet passionate monkey sex to all of them at the same time.

Or crashing head first into the water, knocking myself unconscious and drowning. Either way, it'll be ****ing awesome!!! :D

I was thinking the same thing, then I saw the shot where they were going to hit that jump, thinking "oh let's see how much air he gets." Then the thing just drove over it. Maybe he was wasn't in bunny speed on the gearbox.
 
Well, I'd say that would be just about perfect in terms of a recreational vehicle for Michigan. Everyone who goes out to the cottages usually has an ATV or a Jet Ski, so having both at once makes a lot more sense... It looks as though its fairly capable off-road, and the same can be said going across the water.

Problem is, is it going to cost the same as buying an ATV and a Jet Ski?
 
I'm not too impressed...It's a wheeled Jetski. It looks failry able over land, but it's rather large and not as manuverable compared to normal ATVS. at least, that's what it looks like. It looks much more at home in the water.
 
Not as good as this

I must say that it looks pretty cool :) Maybe a bit cumbersome over land though. And probably pretty expensive. I think I'd rather have a personal hovercraft, like the racing ones, they do look fun.

How about your own personal submarine? There are some great things for water out there!
 
Awesome. Bet it costs £30-40K though.

It's certainly not comparable to a sporty ATV, but it looks similair to a propa' farmers ATV, just maybe without the towing ability.

Well, speaking from a rural region where ATVs are failry common sporting and utility vehicles, this one's less manuverable, thanks to it's size, and probably less adept offroad. It's larger than most Farm/sportsman ATVs, and I doubt it has the 600-700CC engines that farmers tend to like these days. and I should know: Farm/sportsman ATVs need that manuverability, especially they way farmers use them: for Terrain a tractor can't get to. I wouldn't take that one crawling in the woods. I'd highside it way too easily, and then I couldn't take it into the water, either. on normal trails, it's probably about as fast.

If I needed a vehicle that I could take on a fairly easy dirt trail to a lake near my cabin, or if I needed to take a passenger on my ATV, (that's one advantage this one has over almost every quad out there,) on fairly well-groomed trails, Then I'd get one.
 
Might have clearance issues in 4-wheel mode. What happens when you punch a rock through the bottom?

Just be carefull about the wind :)
The English build their racing hovercraft fairly light, and during the uk race for the European Championship a lot of them made half a backflip

The 417 in Formule 2 doesn't live that far from me and i go with him now and then. Like i went with him for a demo a couple of weeks ago.
they even asked if i wanted to join them to sweden, but i can't with school :(

Well I live semi-rural (Medium village, field of horses infront, farm behind) and there's plenty of Quads going round.

But we appear to use them differentley. They are predominantley used for herding and carrying bag/bales of food to fields. So manouverability isn't so neccesary, just traction and stability on the muddy sloping fields.
 
Man that looks fun. After a quick google, Gibbs claim 50mph on land and water.
With power at 140bhp.

Looks 'capable' enough to me. Bearing in mind it's just a fun vehicle.
Or it would be perfect for life-guards.
