Are there stock grills, or at least non-constipated grills for it?

Hard to say, but the EAZYRC Arizona grille may be an option.
I hope so, as I am not a fan of the grille the Cheyenne comes with either.

Here is hoping they come available to order on Amazon soon. I have some Amazon points saved up and I might just "need" one of these...

So far, I only see them up at AliExpress. Shoot, I did not even see it up on the FMS website yet, which is pretty funny.

Glad they thought about making the wheels run in the same direction

I thought that was pretty funny myself. They also have a few other "translations" that just don't seem right, but we know what they mean...

*EDIT*
Honestly, if it is anything like the Atlas, I'd be happy with it.
The Atlas has been one of my most reliable little rigs. Anything I have done to it, was because I wanted to, not because I have to.
It has survived me, my kids, a couple of buddies and their kids as well.

I have a new motor to install, but the old one is still going, noisily, but going nonetheless.

That is quite normal. Nevertheless strange...

Was the same in the Unimog and many other models before...

Donno how those Ali-dealers do this and if they are "allowed" to do this.

I remember one video that HG put out for their 402 G-wagon look alike they apparently either had motor wires backwards or reversed throttle so they put the body on backwards for the demo video but you can see the "rear" wheels steering and the brush guard was on back.

So, I think I figured out where they got the grille from…
