lol well of course it will be easier to buy one already made, but the over all cost will go up too. personally i am a big fan of any thing DMG (one of the vendors here) i have been running one of his chassis and love how it preforms, but it was pretty costly at $185 but very worth it at the same time, while many others are a fan of the "edge" chassis which will only set you back 50 or so. so what u can get will be serverly effected by how deep your wallet is

Build you own. Look up 1.1 rock crawler rigs. Like king of the hammers or somthing like that. Take what you like and incorperate them into your own truck. You will have the only one like it. Take your time and you will have a one of a kind beast. |

I would say build one, it might or might not come out good but everything is worth a try, and if your looking for a cheap one i got one if your interested, and it will only cost 20$ |
