That thing is cool. Super scary on a steep hill though.

Yes. I'm not thinking steep hills would be a good plan.

Yes indeed. A good roll cage would be a must in that thing.

Would be a great addition for sure. Using it up north over the Arctic will make it great for the wadding between ice chunks.

Yemelya Is an arctic amphibious vehicle that have crossed the Arctic through the North Pole to Alert CANADA from Russia. I am sure we can convert couple of Series trucks to do this.

They are not large actually.  Shorter than a 90. Just a bit wider.  And a lot lighter. (The one I posted, not the custom one Emad posted)
