Like 25 years ago, my dad(who worked for Paccar at the time as an accountant) took me to some proving grounds where thay had a whole fleet of those Tatra's running through the woods along with Hummvees. I was instantly hooked. Then I find out, I had a very distant relative who was a supervisor at the Tatra factory in Czechslovakia, my uncle got hold of him and he sent me some of the coolest toy models I've ever had. I still have them!
I believe Avalanche Engineering had a link at one time to an importer who was selling them in the US. The trucks, not the toys.
These trucks are resposnsible for what got me into 4 wheeling today.
