4 wheeler FTW...if you were buying BRAND new, then I would say airboat/seadoo...used..no way...you'll just be throwing money into it. Mud truck..I would say okay if you were going to build it, I wouldnt buy a used mud truck unless I could go through it with a fine tooth comb...
There is a lot of fun to be had trailriding on a 4 wheeler...it never gets old...and you can do it pretty much year round here...

ya, now its pretty much between an airboat and a 4wheeler.
though i think ive decided on lifting my truck 5" and slappin some treadwrights under it. 315/75-16 which comes out to about 35"
payin around with calulators, ive found the 4.10s and those tires are pretty much exactly the same as having the 3.55s with the stock 245/75-16 tires on it. so i think ill just buy the 4.10s and be done with it.

One thing to consider about the airboat, is more and more ordinances are banning them due to their noise. There are already a couple lakes here in my area where they are banned due to the noise they make.

ya, you do have a point, maybe i should take the 5K i would spend and put it in a 3month CD and make money on it, and go from there.
but i did decide on the airboat, and i also decied im gonna do a 5" lift, 315/75-16 m/ts and 4.10 gears. (yea yea i know, but thats the best for my setup its actually closest to the factory combo (245/75-16 and 3.55s))
