I remember seeing those in ads in my Dad's Popular Mechanics Mags along with the six wheeler.


Cool find. It's official, Youtube has everything!!

that thing is sweet!

That sure would be handy for hauling firewood out of the woods / swamp / field.....

If only the motorcycles AMF made were good.

Is that Stacey David at the wheel? Looked like he conked his head pretty good!

I think you're right.... I even think I remember the show where he "tested" it....

Re: Motorized Freak of the Week: The AMF Sur-Trek

Yup, that's Stacy.....

I've ridden in one of those things....rides rougher than a cob, but they are neat!

My dad has a 6-wheeler along those lines....forget the actual name brand, but it's from the 1970's, was built in Arkansas.

2-cycle powered, actually has a jet-drive system for waterbound excursions.....I oughta buy the damn thing from him.

Smoke is it a Maxx or something to that effect?

My neighbor had one as a kid and I've always wanted one.

Man, I need, or at least want, one of those things! I've even got a pretty good place to use it. Looks like great machine to fool around with.

Brian, I have no idea what the name is...may go out that way tomorrow, will check if I do.

This has a 2-stick steer/propulsion setup(like the older dozers), as opposed to a single stick/steering wheel setup like the AMF or Argo.
