    looks to have good articulation but there doesn't appear to be any outstanding features.

    50% axles articulation, 50% chassis flex!

    One really outstanding feature would be an affordable price point!

    How does $80,000 sound . Its at least $50,000 cheaper than the new Iveco 4x4 .

    And as you have pointed out in the past, unlike the Iveco, the brakes would probably work on the GAZ...

    Life is just a series of obstacles preventing you from taking a nap.

    yes, the only thing it its a bit gutless , but I really like it .

    Also unlike the Iveco its easy to maintain and repair and you don't need a dedicated $20,000 dealer level diagnostic tool,(to be fair you can now get them for $5000) Its utilitarian but has no shortage of cup holders. Its wider than the Iveco but the perfect width to tow our new bigger caravan. I would buy the dual cab model but prefer it on the SWB chassis if thats possible.

    Been seriously considering an OKA for some time, but this is definitely worth a look IMO. Russian trucks go ANYWHERE, if youtube is to be believed.
