    Probably the worst battery life of any RC on that site. I wouldn’t even bother driving it across the living room without a regear and tune. It has the motor out of a 1/10 minivan as well. I’m holding out for the 1/10th Ranger Raptor.

    I'd buy one if it were a TRD Sport 4x4 with our version of off road accessories like Home Depot or Sam's Club shopping cart outside of it, or softball gear or a small assortment of plants from the local garden center to put in the bed of the truck...

    Actually not a bad looking lexan body. Would not mind a side by side comparison to my Minime just to see even tho it's just slightly smaller. Just not a fan of the 1.55" wheels which is about 15" to scale.

    Yeah, wheels look a little small. Have to change those out and with some more scale tires.

    Best looking Element RC rig to date! I own a few Element Enduro's and love the simple yet effective platform.

    Looking forward to picking one up soon and also picking up the clear body when it's available to make a mini version of my 1:1.

    Now that there is a Tacoma body out there I'm sure there will be a few people building Minime's. Cant wait to see more of them out there:hattip:

    I agree! This is one body that has been wanted by a lot of R/C enthusiasts for a long time. Even though it is not a licenced Toyota Tacoma body, Element did a great job in making it looks as close as they could. With the added Knight Customs 3D prints that will be offered for it, it will be fairly easy to make it look much closer to a real life Tacoma.

    I also can't wait to see more of these out on the trails! I believe it is going to be a hot seller!

    I'll probably add one to my growing fleet of 1:10 RC crawlers. These things are so much fun. I guess I'll have to buy some adaptors I have 3 different Traxxas TRX4s currently Defender, Sport, Benz (my son's)

    That’s a dream shack right there!

    In Los Angeles you can rent that out to a family of 5 and get $1500 a month in rent. :D

    I have TRX Defender and a Tamiya AMG Benz.
    Both RTR because I have no time to build anymore. Is your Benz the TRX6 6X6 monster?
