seriously... it depends on about a hundred different variables. search, search, then search. right before you think you have something to post; search again.

narrow it down to what platform you wanna run, and go from there. just to let you know- the TLT I am building now; has a budget of around 350$ (and I already have a rooster and tq3)

remember; search.

The questions you are asking have been asked, literally, a hundred times before. Search before you ask as question.

With a TLT you will spend $300-400 depending on what you want to do. If you want a comp crawler, its going to be around $300, if you want a really nice scale crawler, its going to be closer to $400 and up.

The first thing I would do is look at where you are going to be running it. If the rocks are large you might want to go with a clod or shafty. If the rocks are small then go with a TLT. Build you truck for the terrain you will be running on.


I think that $300 to $400 will get you going but barely if you have nothing. I would also suggest you look at the used rigs.
