    Now I want one of these! Did someone say it comes with transmitter, receiver, speed control, motor, and steering servo?

    All of that used to be separate and basically tripled the price of the rc.

    Tamiya Bullhead is the 4x4 semi I had back in the early 90’s. Definitely unique.

    I picked up the combo kit. Comes with transmitter, receiver, speed controller, motor, steering servo, battery, and charger. It is complete “ready to run”. I added 4 AA batteries to transmitter and started crawling.:D

    Beautiful rig, I luv it!

    Now can someone please tell me if they fixed the transmission shifting on it yet and if it still comes low on ATF from the factory before I buy??

    Well I got a little start anyway. Not very good pics. Wheels are gold, not silver. Thought I'd try something different.

    Such awesome rigs. BTW the km3 1.9 4.09 OD that RC4WD sells remind me of a 255 profile tire.

    Haha. I’ve already ripped out the esc and motor replaced with better. Low speed control I though was bad stock. Burnt the servo out last night so I guess I gotta replace that with a nice servo now

    My Minime Tacoma pretty much just sits on a shelf, my Widebody Taco I use quite a bit. They are much heavier than the Knightrunner.

    I got the same situation with the Axial SCX10 III JLU. RTRs on the speed side seem to be solid. RTRs on the crawler side seem to be suspect. If I was doing it over again, build kit all the way, esp as it needs to be mostly taken apart to check the lube and pull spacers for the 2spd gearing on the Axial.

    That's a custom Prinsu rack. I ordered a couple of extra when I built my Minime and Widebody. Had to shorten and narrow it for this one.
