Hydratrek

The Hydratex really moves in the water , with its dual props that are recessed into the rear of the lower tub . I,m really impressed with this unique , aluminum , amphibious , 6x6

It's got it's nice points, but the size is a big downfall for me. The Argo 8x8 is about as big a vehicle as I think I would ever consider. If your going to go that big you might as well be in a jeep.

The video shows the 5 mph water speed of the Hydratex , and its exellent stability in choppy water .

hdble ,

Yes ,,I totally agree with you about the width of the Hydratrex . Its too wide of a 6x6 to be used for the trail riding most of us like to do . With an amphib that wide , you would be limited to jeep trails , like they have at Haspin acreas . It would probably be ideal in a place like that .

Mudbug,
I do like the aluminum body, looks cool. But I quit driving my jeep because of places it wouldn't fit that I wanted to go. That eould sure defeat the purpose.

Wonder why it has such a long nose, cuts way down on the approach angle?
