So cool! I'll definitely have one of these!

 

[TurboTJ]

Yuck, it has a snorkel.

 

[mots]

Cool! But it’s not Snaptite, you sure I can handle it? LOL

 

[JMT]

It’s got the stock transfer case skid. I think I’d see how much BL if needs, fab up some body mount lifts, a flat skid, leaves off the snorkel and let it be at that! Looks fun!

 

[Apparition]

Needs more LJ

 

[NDSpeed]

It should be Gold!!

 

[Mumblewood]

Haha I have a lifted version of this I’m working on. Same company and scale

Every time i've thought about getting a model jeep, it somehow turns into "if i get an RC, it can build it AND wheel it" which then never happens because damn those things are expensive. This looks like a happy compromise

Forget the Jeep part and forget your budget. This is what you seek. I’ve beat the snot out of mine and it’s awesome.

Not me, for scale

Yeah, but i think half the fun for me would be making an identical version of my jeep i could drive around, but then i just wonder why i don't drive the real thing around.. then i end up buying more jeep parts..

It does look really fun though!

The beauty of scale models. Leave it off.

I did the RC thing in the late 80's and had a great time. A short lived three year money pit.

I had some years ago, they had nothing on these new ones.

 

[AndyG]

I wonder if it’s hard to regear. I bet the sensor pins are tiny.

It is funny , but Traxxas was the main reason I got out of RC racing. It was a track in Dallas which was the home track of Traxxas and our RC10's were been beat and bullied by the Traxxas team drivers every Saturday night. I sold my stuff and took up restoring muscle cars.

I was about to say... it's too bad they had to ruin it with that snorkel. I mean of all things... a snorkel... really!?

I own one and have for years. It's beyond nuts to drive, and practically indestructible.

The only downside: It's not cheap (as you know)!
