From the looks of this truck its going to take a lot to break parts on it. This rig is going to sell like hotcakes.

Those tires are great!

WOW!! Its a lucky thing we put the cage on, cause we caught a wild BOAR!! haha.
Also, as much as i didn't want to modify the cab...i had to. It stood as my original plan to create a full cab and have a the bed an individual structure so when the truck flexes you can see the bed and cab moving in different directions..like the real thing. Haven't tried it yet..still have to relocate the esc. going to go with a mamba micro pro on 3s utilizing either a silver can or crawl master, well have to see.

id say for the price you get a lot MORE than you pay for...2 speed trans-tcase-Full aluminum layout scale rims and tires, scale shocks, leaf springs, Aluminum axles-Molded body(including two cab backs-windsheild steering wheel-full detailed dash-sitckers-all the screws and hardware...i'd say your money definitely go a long way.
Plus it really looks scale when driving, and it sure can take a beating!! Tough truck!

i want to say that so far it hasn't been too challenging..i did make an a/c vent gauge panel, floor board and inner fender wells. nothing to flashy, i chose function more than fancy for the wheel wells. John i did however get the full cab back mounted and i cut the front of the bed like i originally planned..it looks pretty good. once the sun comes up ill snap off a few.

Got the rims that were intended for the mud slingers in!! i think the style matches the color much better....now for some body mods!!
i really want to anodize the rings black. maybe some google DYI mods? We'll have to see.
