Makes me think they have never heard of "Tread Lightly" before.
Seen something similar before. Why go off-roading in a truck? :?

I think these trucks were the one the USSR used to parade there missles around on during the cold war so when the nukes were confiscated, these were put out to pasture or sold of for next to nothin.

If ya look around yutube, there is a whole eastern europe trials competion with these things

Good point :lol:

Also I like how they just go cruising on in all relaxed and oh shit stuck .... 'click' .... broom straight out.

Looked them up on Wikipedia, 11.7L diesel V8 or 17.6L diesel V12 (the turbo ones must be custom)

Power output: 198.6 kW (266 hp) @ 2000 rpm
Torque output: 990 N·m (730 ft·lbf) @ 1300 rpm :lol: :lol: :lol:
