Been wanting to have something waterproof, something i can bash on and still look good, After all the issue slowing down my other hilux and seeing what i wished i would have did to it, i decided to get another one, it might make it here before saturday, hopefully it will. Im gonna tear it down and do a little work on it next week, Probably paint it

do you have a personal preferance on the pit's vs. the trepadors? they both look good on there btw
 
Beat the hell out of this rig this weekend, broke a cvd(fixed it)and went back at it. fun little truck, needs some power though, the 35t just doesnt cut it.

Got to test it out with the brushless system and new wheels, it did really well, still a little top heavy with the spare mounted up but it gets the job done, looking forward to tweaking and testing some more
