For more information, including a picture of one of these towing a skier, see their website

Hey that puppy even tows a water skier. All it needs is sails and wings. Oh yea, its got to be a submarine too!
That looks like one really cool car!
The Gibbs Aquada, which sells for $115,000, can reach speeds of 100 mph on land and 30 mph on water - not too shabby!
Can you imagine the look on people's faces when you hit the boat landing with that thing.

Pretty impressive vehicle, but if salted roads tear up our cars, what would a full salt bath do?
