8x8
You gotta love those big MAN 8x8 trucks. Russian builder Kamaz also makes an 8x8 with their signature air-cooled diesel engine.
In USA, Oshkosh makes an 8x8, usually outfitted as an airport fire truck. If set up as 6x6 with a tag rear axle, the rear axle can be made steerable, a throwback to the hook-and-ladder days.

Kamaz has one, the (very resonably priced too at !50,000 NEW!)
good luck getting it into the US though...

But I'm more impressed with URAL's 5323.
They're doing a JV with Iveco to make them, so you know they've got to be good.
4 axles...
5 selectable diff locks...
That monster will not be stopped!

Look at the axle mobility
I know it's not a cab over, but if your going Eastern Bloc, check out KRAZ

:Wow1:
Also, take a look at these axles for an URAL, talk about low profile differential!
