Here's the problem.... This forum doesn't typically discuss monster trucks that don't even resemble 1:1 monster trucks.

That look, with the chassis hanging way below the (ugly) body and the massively oversize wheels with tires that have relatively short sidewalls - all of it poking outside the width of the truck..... blech.

Yes, I once had a Stampede, and a T-Maxx (1st gen) and even an E-Maxx (also 1st gen).

But no more, and if for some reason I got one or something similar, I wouldn't discuss it here except in one of the Chit-Chat threads.

No. Not at all.

Bashers want cheap. Proline is the opposite of cheap. They are really expensive. Arrma and Traxxas are established in this area even if the scales are different.

Proline vehicles don't stick around and aftermarket support is nonexistent.

Sorry for putting this here, still learning the forums,(rules & regulations) now I know where to put it at, and thanks for letting me know. I just thought since its a new truck the rc community would like to see it.

No harm no foul - just pointing it out. This is called the RCCrawler General Tech thread, after all. There's not talk of stadium trucks either, although the SCORE version of the Yeti gets mentioned here and there - easy to see why on that one exception.

I'm a basher and I've spent somewhere in the vicinity of $40,000 on my RC collection.

Looks like they are trying to compete with the 4x4 slashes built up. Not sure about the diffs, 4s ?? Pipe dream ?

I like the thought, I’ve spent hours and dollars to get my RR slipper set for 3s. I’m running a MM2 /2650 unsensored. A 4wd terror !



I’m happy with this, only advantage is with a diff, but will it hold the power ?

Agreed,
There’s more talk of snatching bodies intended for monster trucks here that we try to make more scale on our crawlers than anything else.

The video on this new PL truck is pretty sick. Not really in the market for another M/T right now though. I’am on the other hand very intrigued to get a Mega Mud truck into the works over winter possibly.
