    Change out the motor? Does it move now when you get wedged like on Saturday?

    I did a few upgrades the last couple of days. Links, motor, body, bedsides, plate bumper..

    Can you list the brand and specs of this truck? How much would it cost me to duplicate it?

    Im looking for a truck and dont know if an eMaxx is my best option.

    Axial trail honcho (ready to ride) includes everything.

    $350.

    I have some upgrades on it but that is the base price. On tower hobbies you can find a combo with the batteries and a charger for about 390 but they have $30 coupon going on right now.
