Exclamation Russian highway - 4x4 needed!

Anybody fancy commuting on this road?

Russian Federal Highway

Bet you'd never complain about the M25 again after you've driven through this!

Mad !!!! you would need a big Unimog to get through that . And a few guns to keep the locals at bay.

I am guessing thats the Steps area - perma frost melts turning road into mud bath. Looks like good fun.

Never mind a Unimog - more like a T34 tank!

Love the last line of the write up at the top of the page: "Fuel, food, firearms and steel tow-line are the things that are needed most these days on this Federal highway"

Don't get me wrong - I like Unimogs too, and the portal axle volvos, but a tank would make life easier I reckon!

I suspect a tank may have problems with the relly deep mud. You need a hovercraft mate!

Anyone that's travelled in Africa wouldn't find a scene like this unusual.
Anyone see the 80 series Landcruiser towing out cars? GO Landcruiser!!

LOL - a hovercraft would do it for sure!

ACM - nice piece of kit - love the idea of a 6x6 version!

I am going to buy one. Either fully kitted out from Iceland Or I will visit Sweden and find one that has most of the work done.

Peanuts to buy .
