You might be able to find a Losi mini or micro crawler for that price... but Crawlhog is right, if you're looking for 1:10 scale you'll be hard pressed to find a $100 rig. And if you did, you would most likely regret buying it.

Not going to find much for under 100.

People are going to bash this one, But its under 100 and will let you know if this hobby is something you really want to invest in. I feel its a good entry level crawler. Search for forum, there are a few thread about what people have done with this little guy.

I love my exceed and plan to pick one of these up soon to turn into a scaler.

Take me from me , I mad the mistake of buying an Exceed but I got the 1/8 scale , they use crap material to make parts , parts are hard to find and even the Exceed website doesn't sale the parts for them . I have made some BIG mostakes in life but buying that was by far the worst of them all

sounds like you allready bought something for under 100 bucks. save a few more pennies and get something you can work off of, or get a star and start checking the for sale section there are plenty of good deals in there on more reliable trucks.
