Default Amphibious motor home, anyone?? Yes, you read that right...

It's called the TerraWind. It's a seriously luxurious motor home with features like:

- Marble floors and counter tops
- Jacuzzi bath tub
- 42" plasma TV with in-motion DSS satellite TV and full surround sound

...oh, and it's also a HOUSEBOAT!! Check out the video right here. It's the broadband version of the video, so 56k'ers beware. There's also a 56k version, as well as detailed information on this behemoth at www.terrawind.com.

It's made by a couple in South Carolina, and you can get one starting at only $850,000!!

...and if you don't think that thing is enough to give your local fishermen that priceless "Whut tha fuck is 'dat thang, Maynard?!?!" look, they're also gonna be making a TRAILER (which will also float) for the damn thing!!

Check it out...it's a MUST SEE!!

Wow, i've never been in one of those camper things, actually it bother's me how they park themselves on the left lane on the highway, but...I wouldn't mind going on vacation on an amphibious coach thing...
I wonder how they deal with corrosion though...

That's freakin awesome, way better than that little "amphibious sports car" that's being talked about all over the place like it's some sort of revelation. This even looks decent hehe.
