I need a cheap style R/C car

[FC~FordLord]

Hi guys, i need to know what to buy to have a cheap RC. I dont want a rock crawler, i just want something that is atleast semi-scale, that is preferably shaft driven, doesnt need to be big, i was thinking around 1:16. i would prefer a 4wd. i would also prefer it to be a pickup, it doesnt need to have a body, like i said, it needs to be very inexpensive, and fairly easy to build, or atleast have directions. i was thinking around $100-150.

i like the tamiya f150, what parts (battery, charger, and radio) should i get for it if i buy it? oh, and i have 2 1/6 scale nylints, ive been thinking of selling my scorpian.

I'd buy this. It comes complete with radio, battery, and charger.

It has a good base to build into a crawler later, and can be converted to 4wd easily.

The Tamiya F150 is great but you still need radio, charger, and battery on top of the $139 price.

The Tamiya f150 is a little more than you said you were looking to spend but I just got one the other day and had it running for less than $200 with bearings. I ran it a bit today and I'm really impressed, pretty quick too, good on small jumps and overall a lot of fun!

What's the wheelbase on that F150 body? Can you buy just the body?
