    Amphibious Cars

    After barely escaping from a BC flood three weeks ago, and my workplace was barely above sea level, I was checking out Tim Dutton's amphibious cars and one Mitsubishi Pajero that's converted into an amphicar. I got an article for the latter seen here.

    The question is, in the event of a flood, has anyone ever encountered these amphibious cars?

    This is all I have. And No, I haven't tried it with mine...
    I didn't know what to do, so I didn't do anything

    I had the opportunity to buy one of these beauties back in the 90s. But as with most of the deals I found back then, I was a poor High School kid working my butt off delivering pizzas to buy cars, but just didn't have the scratch to buy them all...

    When your car is also your boat, you don't have to buy an expensive vehicle to pull your boat to the lake!
