Heh. My driving instructor who enjoyed soviet cars told us of a trick to get cars like that up the hill - turn around and go back up the hill using the reverse gear.
- nradov 8y agoYes reverse has a lower ratio than 1st on many cars.
- patrickg_zill 8y agoThe Ford Model T and maybe the A also were driven like this. Personally I think that the Lada Niva is interesting.
- ollie87 8y agoThe Fords where due to how the fuel tank worked, not a lack of power.
