Yes yes, that's the boring stuff, where does the profit and forcible extraction of others' money come in?

It's UAZ-452, produced since 1965 and still up to this day in crapton of various models which all still retain the characteristical original look. The pictured is probably UAZ-3962, dedicated ambulance model, also still in production, nicknamed "Tabletka" (pill).
was going to comment about it but then you pulled up with the numbers oh hell naw
Hang on, do you not even have ambulances in burger land?
there's ambulances, they average out to about ~$1500 a ride of you're uninsured, about $500 if you have insurance.
also, there's a good chance that your insurance isn't contracted with that specific ambulance company, so you also run the risk of having insurance and getting a gigantic non-covered bill anyways.
most people will call a cab to take them to the hospital these days, or just die, as the system seems designed to encourage.
Someone close to me had an ambulance ride and they had insurance from the hospital. I think it was around $2,000
Fucking shitty country
about $500 if you have insurance
i still can't wrap my head around the idea that being insured in the US means you get a discount on health services
Jfc man
:yea:
They do, but they run away from them since the eyoeyo ride plunge them into bankruptcy.
There's nothing that cures a broken leg faster than a US ambulance. There's a famous film about it called Forrest Gump.

I am so sorry
Don't be, this has been my cultural enrichment for the day. UWUSSR shall live on in me uwu
You should be
but at what cost?
Less profits for the rich. 
Looks fun to drive. Probably no power steering, no power brakes. Probably leafs from and rear, bouncy as shit. Manual windows and locks. Could likely even do a decent bit of four wheelin. Since it’s a Soviet vehicle it’s either dependable as fuck or it breaks down if you look at it wrong, no in between.
The reputation for soviet tech is it will run fine for 100 years as long as you meticulously maintain it
I mean I was mostly making a joke but that’s not really true. Bearings still get spun, lifters still stick, electric motors still burn windings, regardless of where they’re made. A Lada burns oil just like an Opal will.
i mean, without modern planned obsolescence plastic wifi bullshit i can see things lasting much longer
Woaaaw
