Bw6 ,
That was just an example of what we rode through that day , and this is by no means a comparrison of where we like to take our amphibs when we ride . That video was taken at a well maintained ATV park , and most of the trails are wide enough that another ATV can come help you get back , if you ever happen to break down . If you are stuck REALLY bad the owner of the park will bring his tractor to pull you out .
A lot of the trails there are wide enough for the water truck , to spray water and keep down the dust . That long mud hole was near the entrance of the park , and if that was the extent of what I had to ride in on a regular basis ,, I,d sell my amphib and buy a good ATV .
This video is a poor example of where we have taken our amphibs , when we go riding .
" We don't have mud holes like that up here, but have plenty of loon crap, swamp, muskeg, floating muskeg, rock, bog. and bush so thick you can hardly walk through it. "
That,s the very stuff that my amphibious friends and I want to see the Hoot go through , not the really easy stuff thats posted on Utube .
Bw6 , could you post some good pictures of the Hoot with Frontier tires on it ? I,d like to see how much clearance is left between the tires and between the top of the tub. In all honesty , was there any place that the Hoot could " continue to go ", but the Argo,s could not , because of the Hoot,s lower psi on the ground ?
