I'd love one of those massive Russian trucks. Ignoring the hideous fuel consumption, the big problem is that every tool you own for working on cars will be useless.

More an interesting (for me) exercise on what I've actually done on this car and what I've learnt in that process. In my everyday life and work, I am surrounded with tech. For me it'...
