If we're talking 8x8, then I gotta mention the Czech Tatra T813. Here's a pic I took of one at last year's Beltring show, there were two in a convoy of about a dozen trucks from eastern Germany (I'd love to have seen them on the road !) They did a super display in the main event ring at the show.
The T813 has an air-cooled multi-fuel V12. Apparently after the fall of the iron curtain, quite a number of T813 have gone into civilian hands, some being used for 'sport' ! One day I'd love to go to the Mohelnice truck trials, held in May.

Obviously there are other fine 8x8 trucks, but there something extreme about the Tatra that appeals..
