That garbage car is a tank though.

I may have asked this question on a previous thread..can't remember. Can one rent a car (at a reasonable price) and drive from Vladivostok to Khabarovsk ?
If so, is this an insane adventure for someone who doesn't speak any Russian ? I could bring a friend who speaks pretty good Russian...he was previously married to a woman from Moscow and his mother-in-law and step-daughter lived with them for much of the time they were married. Would the adventure, in addition to the landscape be worth the effort?...Or would flying from Vladivostok to Khabarovsk and renting a car as needed make more sense ?

I think it possible, I phoned to companies that provide cars for rent. With driver can accurately. But myself, I will clarify this. Rental cars a day usually costs 1500 rubles, it is about $ 40, with unlimited mileage. From Vladivostok to Khabarovsk, only 800 km away. Maximum of 2 days on the road, if not in a hurry. If you have a friend who speaks Russian minimally, all will be well.
Especially the road is great. If you want, I can will call the companies that provide such services, and to give more details.

No need to call the companies, but thank you very much for the offer. I had a feeling that road might be a good road.....it has a much 'thicker' appearance on Mapquest than many other roads in the region.

Very simple. My surname Berkutov. And my nickname is simply an abbreviation of the surname. On English Berkut means - Golden Eagle.
