LONE-STAR 370 Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Over priced. $15.00 per person is all its worth and that is really to much. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I looked at the Fort in June and it's $93 plus tax a night for a full hook up and no discount available anymore. 2 years ago I was paying $65 for premium in November.

BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 Jason just posted this to FB... Someone's silly enough to pay $100 to be driven around for 20 minutes. Actually saw 3 of these out and about Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Quit your whining. I can't wait to stop by the Boathouse and pick up a $21 order of asparagus to take on my $100 boat ride. TCD NLPRacing and BradyBzLyn...Mo 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DaveInTN 3,247 Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 Yes, Jim, you do. About $20 worth. BradyBzLyn...Mo and Tri-Circle-D 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If they really are charging $21 for an order of asparagus, I'm really tempted to try them. They have to be special for that price, right? Said the guy who paid $20 for a lukewarm breakfast sandwich at BOG. Yes, Jim, you do. About $20 worth. It would be worth the $21 to recreate this scene.

Katman1356...Jason 1,140 Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 Upon further viewing of these amphicars running around they all have captains but no passengers. Not sure they have all been empty but I have seen at least 3 that were. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure they have all been empty but I have seen at least 3 that were. You mean folks aren't lining up for a chance to spend $100 for a ride in one of these super cool boat/cars? How could they have miscalculated that? TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NLPRacing 4 Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 I've never ridden in an Amphicar and will probably never have the chance to, so next time I'm there, I would do it. After spending thousands, what's another $99. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 Is it $100/ person? Or $100 / car (3 people)?I'd pay $100 for all three of us but not $100 each. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LONE-STAR 370 Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 I still say it's overpriced. I would rather rent a boat at the Fort. Now if they let me drive the car boat I would pay. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Yes it's overpriced. I think a fiat price would be about $15/ person. Not $33/ person, but for such a unique opportunity I'll over pay, once. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beckers 1,136 Posted April 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Hopefully they will drop the prices before my trip because I does look fun. So everyone do me a favor and don't do it so they lower the price, ok? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
