First, the increased demand can be explained by a relatively small price, and secondly, most of the samples are collected at local plants. The build quality (though Russian) is impressive - it is at a good level. Capital repair, as a rule, machines do not require a long time, and the service life exceeds all expectations. And in order to ensure that trucks of this manufacturer have always been in shape and not failed on flights, regular check-ups at service centers should be regularly conducted.
