I bought a Attex from Patb069 just outside of New York city. I know I caused a few traffic jams going through the city. Thanks GPS. I also had to explain to each toll booth attendant what I was hauling on the trailer. They would then ask "You mean it really floats...like a boat." but the best part is how many younger people show interest in these machines like when you stop for fuel. Many times I have returned to my vehicle after paying only to discover a crowd gathered around the trailer. This is follwed by a question and answer period which sometimes slows down the trip home but is worth it when you hear the guys walking away saying "Man I want one of those.".

gathering crowds
I have not yet swam my new to me Hustler(very first 6x6). My other toy is Called a Buccaneer B2b and you want to talk gathering at a boat ramp.My Buc is a 2 seat experimental amphibious seaplane.When you land in the lake ,then throw the lever that lowers the wheels and power up the boat ramp to get out and stretch you legs........people gather like flys to roadkill!!!I do enjoy answering the questions and especially letting the kids sit in the cockpit.

people gathering
my friend and i went up to amphimans house yesterday and picked up some well needed parts my buddy ended up buying a lockley wrangler and i got an attex top on the way home i got some interesting looks and crowds gathering around my truck at the gas station. When we drove through potter county Pa i had a guy with an attex on the back of his truck give me two thumbs up. And going through the tolls we tried to explain what we were hauling and the guy looked at us like we were aliensl___>

people w/questions
When I first brought my scrambler home the wife came into the garage and the first thing she said was "You payed money for that" It took her about a month to venture out again and then she ask " when will it be running? It looks like it will be fun".Gas stations are another story every one wants to know what it is
I love it

i got the same type of reaction tlp when i brought my attex home. my sister came out into the garage and looked at and it started laughing, i was like whats so funny and she goes i hope you didn't pay for that.....it belongs in a junkyard.but after i got the body fixed and painted she didn't think it looked so bad and now everytime she sees me she asks when it'll be done cause she thinks i'll never finish it
....but i know secretly that she really can't wait to ride in it lol
also got alot of slow downs on the 45 minute trip home from people wondering what it was. and had a few funny looks when we pulled into the gas station as well...but no looks of admiration lol

I've had a few cops pull up next to me at gas stations asking about mine.
I love the look you get when people ask how you steer, stop and go and you say "With the sticks" each time. Then when you tell them it floats, they're completely convinced you're yanking their chain.Banned

Always pretty much use the same gas station so right after purchasing the Avenger i get ready to ride. I fill up the truck and the Avenger: which by the way has "8" wheels. When i go into pay for the gas one of the cashiers that i talk with a lot says hey that thing has 6 wheels! So i immediately turn around and look and say "did someone steal 2 of my wheels" I told her it was suppose to have 8, at least it did when i left the house. For some reason she had a mental block on the last 2 tires, so i took her outside and counted for her. The expression on her face when she realized it really did have 8.... 4 on each side. She still doesn't believe it floats. We always laugh about the 8 wheel thing when i bring it in to gas us. She is a great lady but i still don't understand the thing about the 8 wheels
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways , cigar in one hand, whiskey in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!!!"
