I like their old saying ...

One of my favorite Russian sayings, roughly translated, is that the better your off-road vehicle, the further you’ll have to walk to find a tractor to pull you free when you get stuck.


That is so true. Around here it is a well-known fact that "having 4-wheel drive will just make you confident enough to go places you shouldn't." More off-road vehicles get stuck that 2-wheel drive ones, because people get out and play in them!!

I have always agreed with the saying "the bigger and badder the 4-wheel drive is, the worse it gets stuck" :)
