Excellent review Ras! Thanks for showing this interesting set! I was thinking about using it for a firefighting custom, & now leaning more towards it due to its military type capabilites.

I have a question for you Ras, is the vehicle color the same red as the fire department trucks or more orange in color? ???

I suspect that the paintings are tampo printed, and if so, can easily come off with non-acetone nail polish remover, so it's perfectly suitable for a fire-fighting special vehicle. I first want to see how my snow cat will come out, but when it's done i may give this 6 wheeler a go.
Cheers!

The red of the 6x6 is different. It is more of a wine red than a cherry red. The klicky in the middle came from the hoopty truck. 
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

With some quick accessories it easily becomes a fire fighting swamp machine. Every thing is safely locked on. You can see how the ramps are correctly stored.   One disappointment is the gauge of the roll bars. They are a bit larger than a klickies hand so the black clips will get distorted. The 3 way would not fit due to how it can not stretch enough. Now that I see close ups I am wondering why it says RS2X3, shouldn't it be RS6X6 ?

Grigori, even though the color isn't a perfect match, I say it's good enough. In the future I may go for it and try to make a custom .

And yes, 2x3 is wrong. It should say 6X6, 4x6 or 2x6 - you have to have power to 2, 4 or all 6 wheels, never just to 3 (or 1 or 5).
Cheers!

Thanks for the color comparison Ras. It will do OK fine. The RS2x3 means 2 rows x 3 wheels = 6 wheel drive.
