A country in unrest and violence, when everyone wants a piece of the action, a scary and dangerous area of the world. The government can't make any money from oil exports if they can't get the product to the customer.
Whatever the size or shape of the vehicle, Produce and ‘Drive’ vehicles with high MPG, are very safe, reliable, have a ‘reasonable’ cost and a good ‘value’ for the money. Consider using other forms of less expensive transportation to lower your cost.
