Default In case you wondered how big the SnapOn Wrecker is...!

One of the TRX6 SnapOn Limited Edition Wreckers showed up at the local comp Saturday!!
In case you were wondering just how big it really is check this out.
I thought it looked long in internet pictures but I had no idea!!!

Traxxas designed a pretty neat carrier bearing for the extra 5-6 inches of driveline. Wish I would have taken a pic....

That is our Big Siccx easily sitting on the bed....

Very cool! I assumed it was just a TRX-6, but it definitely is longer. I wish we could have seen body-off shots. Thanks for sharing.

I bet it has the same turning radius as my 1:1 Tacoma.

It's pretty neat looking, but a huge bummer that the bed doesn't operate at all.

If only Traxxas would release this as an option.

The 6x6 G Wagon is just so fugly!

No need for paint or SnapOn decals.

Clear body and some generic towing/Recovery decals and I’ll build my own Winder Towing recovery rig.

I know. I wanted to see underneath too. He was busy preparing other trucks and didn't take the body off while we were around...

I fully agree. I mean I was not expecting a self roll back but seems like a manual slide and tilt would not have been that hard...?

It would be so fun to see what people came up with if Traxxas actually released this to public.
People love it or hate it but I think the G63 6X6 is Badd Ass!!

Least someone has one. It is cool looking and would be 10 times better if the flat bed really worked. But than again if I had one it would be a shelf queen, lol.

Probably a simple modification with all of the semi and construction RC stuff being so popular right now.

Good lord, that thing is impressively huge! (insert "that's what she said" jokes). Seriously though, that is pretty bad ass. Looks like it would be an awesome platform to do a full blown scale build of a military Deuce and a Half rig.

Touché. However I've since heard the bed is static. So is it actually a Flat Bed...?
