| Jeepers Keepers?
After watching a 1.9 wraith bounce from owner to owner to owner out here in Vegas it got me curious about how many rigs people generally hold onto and how many people tend to flip through them like radio stations. After thinking back about my RC history I realized I may be a bit of the latter. For the heck of it I wanted to make a list, from what I can remember, roughly oldest to newest. Here we go... Rustler - this is the one that started it all. Still have it but it’s just a chassis for parts now. Yeti - broke then broke again then traded for next in the list plus cash... Slash 4x4 - got this used and sold it a year later 4tec 2.0 - sold SCX10ii Cherokee - sold Traxxas Fiesta ST Rally - still have. TRX4 Bronco - recently sold, kind of miss this one TRX4 Bronco number 2 - sold VS4-10 Origin - sold SCX10ii Cherokee kit - still have. Rad Van/tiny tire JK RC4WD Marlin - sold Axial Bomber - sold TRX4 Sport Kit - still have! Kinda, this is now the TRX10.2 Axial 1.9 Wraith - sold Toyzuki v2.5 - sold Element Enduro Sendero - still have. Ifs Baja bug now SSD Trail King - parted out/turned into GC4.2 Axial Capra - recently sold VS410 pieced together build - still have SCX10.3 - sold (kept body, on vs410) SCX24 - still have TGH/G-Speed V3 - still have Gamechanger 4.2 - still have TRX6 - still have TGH/HH Sherpa Expert - build in progress DR10 - still have So 26 rigs that I can remember, 15 sold to fund other projects. I’ve kept 11 of them which is right about 42%. What about you?? Last edited by Topher Builds; 07-03-2020 at 11:53 AM. |

Geez, so many. Probably forget most of them. Newest and still have: Portaled Nukiser GC4.2 6X6 Bio-Containment Unit; SCX10 based. 2.2 Sporty UTB 1.9 Mini Comper, in the works. Older, either traded or sold: RC18MT RC18 Bully Berg Xr10 Losi Comp Crawler Rock Bug, RC4WD based 1.9 Brute, scx10 based Dinky caged MRC A couple of FOFF rigs Mini Juice Mini T1E Rockshow 2.2 Wreckluse Tamiyas; MB, Blackfoot, Brat, Frog, Mudblaster, Hornet, Grasshopper, Super Champ & Sand Scorcher 2.2 Bug on worminators 2x Wraiths T-Maxx Various Ofna and Mugen Buggies Ofna Pirate And more planes I care to think about. Most of them ended up being big lawn darts |

I've been in this hobby on and off for the past 15 years, but you couldn't tell it judging from my collection. Axial Capra RTR Traxxas E-Maxx given away or sold Traxxas E-Revo Brushless Edition sold Traxxas Slash 2WD I ended up gutting it for some of my other "experiments". RC4WD Gelande II RTR RC4WD Trail Finder 2 RTR RC4WD 1/24 Rascal this was an impulse purchase in every sense of the word. |

I dont spend to much on my RC’s. I still(or my parents still) have all of my trucks even from when I was a kid. Right now I have my TRX4 Sport kit, a Rock rey I bought second hand, and I bought an SSD Trail King but have yet to even crack open the box it shipped in. Ive though about selling the Rock Rey mostly because it likes to break and I just dont find myself using it much. |

I do hold onto the ones I like and that work well. If I build a new truck for competition I tend to try and offload the old one to free up funds/space.

These have been cool to read and see how different the hobby has been for all of us. The one constant seems to be a lot of Tamiya and axial. We definitely like our toys |
