there's an austrian company - they build great expedition trucks.
you probably can't afford them, though...

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!
