    I think I'm in love after seeing the Tatra Phoenix 8×8 Expedition on that site.

    I'm afraid that I am no longer able to keep up with it. Once in the cab, I would have to have someone stow the step ladder

    I'm told there are young ladies willing to accept that assignment, but they all seem to come with price tags even higher than the Tatra......Ben

    Looking at the site , I somehow missed the paltry pocket change they are asking for the vehicles . Any help would be appreciated .

    For me to accept such an accessory, I would not be concerned with her looks as much as an abundance of patience

    Here"s one: https://www.businessinsider.com/aust...ls-2020-5?op=1

    The Commander 4x4 starts at roughly $435,000, ....... but pricing for the US-spec Commander 8x8 has not been officially released yet.
    Double decker looks to be even more.
