$222,000 for that POS ? What a great deal.

I guess this wasn’t tested in pine barrens like conditions, it wouldn’t make it down many of the roads I routinely drive on.

That Porsche is pretty cool but this monster really might be roaming the Pines very soon.

I'm sure it's just me, but if they said 'hop in, we're going into that man-made resevoir and cross it"....I'd decline.

I think an old fashioned airboat, like the ones used in the Everglades, would probably be more useful and be cheaper than that beast.

More expensive toys on our bill.

Your tax dollars at play. WTF are they going to do with that thing? They carrying the SWAT team out there to catch skinny dippers. It has to be loud as hell. You’ll hear it from a mile away.

I saw some kids in a Cayenne trying to get around the puddles by Hampton Forge without getting mom’s car too dirty a while back.

I don't care how much it costs or been tested it bottoms out it's done and theres no clearance there. I know some places they need to test it in.

I realize they could trailer it. But with a top speed 28 MPH on land and 3.7 on water. It might take a while to rescue someone deep in the pines!

Those Sherps seem to be top heavy.

Video of a Fab Rats recovery. I'm guessing that will buff out.
