A Truck the Russians Make for $50K

How do you get in? It looks like the front panel/window opens up.

Well, there are still terrains where Sherp would need to be carried by DT30 Everpresent http://www.military-today.com/trucks/dt30_vityaz.htm

No steering wheel, but two levers instead: https://youtu.be/JLnSlJVAsvU?t=1m44s

There's a similar all terrain, inflatable tires motorcycle, also made by Russians(0). Of course, when you have roads(1) as in Russia, you simply have to make something like that.

When you start looking you might be surprised what you can both legally purchase and actually afford on the surplus market. A US military m35 deuce and a half is pretty cheap and would be generally more useful with large payload capacity and able to cruise close to 60mph. The "argo" is a cool amphibious utility vehicle you could throw in the back to go for a swim. Together they might set you back around $15k for nice ones or quite a bit less if you're willing to do some work which is part of the fun. Not new, but just as much fun.
