    It is wierd, but the first model 222 is still on road.

    Really now we cant see new road models, because now they make generally military chassis

    I think 25 years ago I saw them with central tire inflation system where you could deflate and inflate on the go.

    I love TMPS) really good feature

    I had an idea to purchase old KRAZ-256 chassis, put 500 hp N14 under hood and install wreker truck equipment.

    Had a chance to drive a 255B. That's a manufacturer I've got respect for.

    Drove a Kraz 255 shortly in the army. Amazing piece of machinery. The TMPS system is amazing feature if you think on how old it is. The truck had a NA v8 diesel. Any more info on it?
    Can't forget one that had been sitting for almost 6 months. It was -20c outside and that thing fired up like it had been started 5 minutes ago without any heater being used.
    Also if I remember correctly the winch was driven by the gearbox and not with hydraulics like it normally is.

    Let the v8 sing :)
