Hurricane Gonsalo coming by tonight, predicting 12" rain …. had me wondering ..

is (will) the Elio FLOAT ??

THAT WOULD BE TOO COOL !!

rear hatch open, fishing rods out the back, put off-road tires for good water traction ..

:)
Sounds like a perfect solution to me. Time to get the fishing poles out of the garage

Everything will float, EZ, even if only for a nano second, so wear your life jacket. :p

I had a '77 beetle. I remember one time the road flooded out. My friend and I (we were 16 at the time) drove around the line of cars stopped at the water line watching the water, and drove right in. The water was not flowing. It was about 50 yards across, but the momentum that we hit the water with was enough to float us to the other side. We rolled the windows down and pretended we were rowing. All the other cars were laughing at us, but no others attempted it.
