    you must be prepared for this

    there is a big money for current situation in this

    some guys near my house go there

    they took lot of spare parts like air bag , 4 spare tires gas bottle and burner for de-freezing truck if they have problem

    also some of them take another gas bottle inside of cab if heating go away

    also in some situation you cant turn off engine

    take a look at this video

    they get 16000€ from germany to tajikistan, fuel and food is cheap there so it is profitable

    bigest problem is to find something to drive back they drive beans for 5000€ ti Macedonia round trip can be about 25000€ which is 36000$

    Same ol same ol. Still basically bouncing around Columbus.

    As far as those euro coe's go.....yuck. although there are some Volvos that look kinda cool. The ones posted all look very cartoonish & out of proportion.
