Great vid....if you catch a rerun of it on currentTV channel, "Dangerous Journies - Siberia" is amazing....full of gunslinging russkies driving 6WD Zils and old ex-army halftracks on 'roads' most of us would draw the line at.

Wow! Eight wheel drive monsters (good to see the little Unimogs keeping their end up though). Many years ago there used to be an all terrain vehicle called a Haflinger which could give a Unimog a run for it;s money, anyone know what happened to them? Think they may have been Dutch.

Sorry not very impressed at all, empty trucks more often than not unable to pull themselves out of the sh?t, put their rated carrying capacity on them and they will hardly move, you only need to see the great clouds of black smoke and they are EMPTY fgs, what a load of rubbish, Rick
