Default 1/6 jeep for $30.00 shipped.....

Was this a good deal? i think shipping alone should be in the high $20 , it looks pretty nice, it has awesome detail, full interior and did i mention it is huge , i shot a couple of pics, not the best and i sat my super CLAW clod 17" wb on top of the box and it looks small compared to this jeep , thye are still on amazon if anyone is interested.

Hey JRH, you payed $30.00 right? with free shipping. Stay away from the recomended combo with the ford truck, they are basically the same except for the bodies obviously but the truck is $100+shipping .

Yep, 30 bux with free shipping. I could have had it in 3-5 days for $20 extra, but for 5-7 days it was free!

Okey these are rough measurements, wb is a tad under 17" more like 16 7/8" and the body width is at 11" , hope that helps

Nope, no 4x4, it's only $30, don't expect any performance or extras for that money , it's a toy for my kid to rag on , he will be 3 in a couple of moths, i have been buying some rc cars for him since he is 1, he still doesn't let of the gas until he hits something , he can steer and reverse though, like i said it's only a little kids toy, the only thing good from it is the nicely detailed body. I bought from amazon for $30 shipped to fl then another $45 shipped to me in Honduras which makes it a total of $75 , still much cheaper then the almost $200 to get something similar here.

I am guessing that they were mispriced, then once this thread was posted a bunch of people bought them and they relised their mistake.

I got mine before the price correction...

Bout time I get to see other people's renditions of how great this body can be used:



I've had mine for quite a while now. I do like the scale look instead of the monster truck look, but it is only a Nylint underneath. Click on my sig to check out build if interested.
