The medical rescue capabilities are by far the #1 perk of that machine I see...being practically as wide as a small car, the limits of land/water based rescue are eliminated.

Should be an interesting piece of machinery...wonder how much the price range would really be?

Man, I can't believe the time and resources companies put into crap. How unpractical is that? It's gotta weigh a ton. On land, any ATV would out-perform it. On water, any waterbike would out-perform it. And what would you wear riding it? If you were on land, you'd need to have a helmet, riding gear, boots, gloves, etc. So you'd have to change before you went on water. If you were on water, you'd have on a swimsuit and a life jacket, so you'd have to change before you went on land. So who cares that it takes 5 seconds to convert from land to water, the rider still needs 5 minutes and a changing room! :rolleyes:

I'll prollie buy one as a rescue vehicle just in case NW gets in another accident and almost kills himself. See...I could ride down the face of the cliff in the ATV mode (barring any chicken grease incidents) then throw the dummy on the back...and ride the surf to the hosipital in the watercraft mode. This would be good because the water would wash away all the blood NW would be coughing up all over my new machine after almost killing himself :p

Obviously it isnt the fastest on water or land, but if the race was down the road, across the lake, I would already be through a 12 pack by the time a standard quad would finish, if it could!
