The fact this thing comes Rtr is awesome but pair that up with a decent drag brake very good tires it is the whole bang for your buck! With stunning attention to detail with the way the body is made and the fact it is a 1972 chevy truck is just the tip of the iceberg, Now lets do a pros and cons and basic what this truck accels at and driver level for maximuim use. Pros 1. esc is great one feature that stands out is the drag break 2. real looking Licensed Super Swamper TSL SX tires i mean if you want to scale rig it up and want to start fresh you cannot go wrong with this truck 3. the suspension is made up Multi-Link Solid Axle which gives you scale looks and the functionality and articulation needed to climb that rocky pass or transverse over a root on a path 4. Spektrum DX2E 2 Channel it speaks for itself how great it is very good radio 5. the last pro(s) are gonna be a grouping of things we take for granted when we buy scale trucks and that is the Steel Ladder Frame i mean for years i ran plastic chassised trucks an having them break a steel system is just a good standard to have the next part is in regards to the axles and that is they are locked no open diff getting stuck here its pure 4wd action thats the biggest selling point to me. So we did some pro(s) for this truck overall it is awesome and a very good truck but as far as driver level is concerned. This truck i would not recomend for kids under 10 because it is a bit top heavy. With that being said lets get on to the CONS list. Cons 1. Not real looking rims sure there shiny most won't care but if you are gonna throw on some Licensed Super Swamper TSL SX you might consider some cepeks or some off brand wheel! 2. motor that comes with it is lacking in torque but in this hobby taking it apart upgrading swapping out to your pref is part of the fun of the hobby so this could be a pro to depends how you see it 3. the color choice on the '72 chevy i mean it speaks for itself Yellow really :/ 4. tranny clearance hangs up everywhere i personally do not mind but its very noted everywhere and mods are done to pull it up in the frame rails to have a better crawl 5. axle hang up many will know having bought other scalers or even other vaterras 6.48 pitch gears its ok for me but can be a pain later when you are adding power they tend to strip All in All this truck is great priced a fun drive an a great present for getting your kids out doors and active! My daughter loves this truck i mean we went from hanging out playing video games getting bored an going for a walk. After awhile walking for fun is not to fun! So i decided we needed something to do while we go exercise mildly and thats where the vaterra came in. The truck is rtr so you can throw batteries in the truck remote ones are included and go for about 45 minutes it is a good walking pace speedwise. The biggest selling point was the fact it got us outside doing this and the family time we get from it i do not think there is many other hobbies that give you and your kids the same love back you put time in the truck its gonna give it back x10 in pure entertainment value! Thanks for your time hope this helps in deciding on a truck! Always have fun thats the best part!Read full review

$400 is steep for an RC (IMO) but this truck DEFINITELY outperforms the $180 crawler I bought. Only down fall, servo (which is normally always a weak point) and no 2 speed tranny (which my $180 crawler DOES have) I’d absolutely recommend this truck! Glad I got it, and it looks great! The body and cage are tough as nails. Great tires. Metal frame. Good springs. Well worth the $$$$$$

I bought this truck as my first 1/10 scale crawler. It has great capability as a rtr model and comes with some already installed upgraded parts that others don’t. the only problem with this car that I have trouble putting the remote down. I 100% recommend this crawler it is worth every penny!

Great product, I put it on my Traxxas TRX4 (with a small amount of modding) = awesome.

It's just what I wanted. In my opinion it was a big mistake for Horizon hobby to discontinue the ascender.
