                    Firstly: not a statement, but "thinking about ...", and secondly: about what "may well be useful." A motorcycle with a sidecar, for example, is an almost status thing in the village and, in some cases, is irreplaceable. This buggy is a transitional step. As, in fact, in the army. Why not? Everything will come in handy on the farm.

          And the Americans had their own "loaf," Jeep Forward Control. Produced from 1956 to 1965. The Soviet "loaf" began to be produced in 1965. The Americans simply do not know how to stand still. We decided that the new car would be better than the old one - we bought a new one. They have a machine, yes, only they first turn on their head, then their hands, make the goods. The machine is turned on last when there is demand for dollars in the world.

    It would be interesting to take a look .. Especially considering the specifics of the buggy (either an undercar or an overgrown tetracycle). In general, the number of ultra-light platforms in the US MTR is amazing. Previously, a contract for 1500 units. , now another 800 and this is not counting the former and before the 13th year .. Or maybe their considerable losses, as a kind of consumable in operations?

                Any drive wheel moves the vehicle exactly up to that moment, until the height of the soil step in front of it exceeds half the diameter of the wheel. The same applies to the track - no vehicle will pass if its clearance is less than the depth of the track. The area of ​​the wheel support of a small diameter is correspondingly smaller than the wheel of a larger diameter - the first will bind where the second passes. So everything about the patency of Israeli rickets can be understood from the pictures without leaving in the suburbs, Polesie or Kolyma.

                And if you drive a vehicle like the Polaris special forces in the pictures in the article, then the center of gravity will be several times the diameter of the wheel, after which Polaris will tip sideways not only on a 30-degree slope (a standard obstacle), but also on a much smaller one.

                Therefore, off-road buggies (designed not only for pokatushek on the beach and sand dunes) are made with the largest possible diameter of the wheels and the lowest possible height of the center of gravity.
