@ANZAC and Sloniksp :

It is very true that the motorized transport (well trucks) was the most important lend leased material, it had a major impact, I've read (but I'll check) that more or less 50% of Soviet transport trucks and cars were lend leased.

Above all, the fact that US trucks were 4x4 was very important given the USSR conditions.

So I agree with you that the lend lease had a much more important impact in this domain, than for planes or tanks.

I had a nice short text on this subject, I'll try to find it back and post it here.
