    wish i had the money for that one... it would be great to run a lipo on my 35T crawler...

    im using a 7 cell NIMH which lasts a long time, but i do like the consistency of the lipo...

    it looks like a cross between a ford offroad and the pikes peak lowered tundra for the HPI RS4 onroad...

    looks awkward...

    At least it has the Toyota emblems. Seems like a step in the right direction.

    A real paint job would make that body look a lot better.

    I dont even have the time right now, I've got two bodies sitting here that need shot, (had for a month). But really the black stripe fucks up the lines on that body.

    The back stripe on the hood? or the sides?

    I can see how the one on the hood fucks things up.

    speaking of yota bodies, just saw this for sale on RCshortcourse.com

    the graphics are wrap, so you can peel off the teeth and other stuff...

    Both IMO, the Side stripes camouflage the body lines.
