Default True Amphibious Side-by-Side Coming Soon



We know a lot of people who take their side-by-sides into some pretty deep water but Gibbs Sports is finishing up work on a new machine that will take the idea to a whole new level:

The Gibbs Quadski is priced roughly at $40k. This Terraquad is gonna have an outrageous price tag.

Looks cool though.

Pretty cool. Out of my price range I'm sure but pretty cool.

For some reason, this makes marginally more sense than the quadski does. Either way k would rather have dedicated machInes for land or water. I did enjoy the top gear episode with the quadski in it though.

Its a neat idea but will be incredibly expensive and impractical. These type of vehicles usually end up doing both things poorly.
