What's your favorite RC Truck, Buggy, Car, Monster Truck... etc?
Let's see what your favorite land based vehicle is. Pictures (if you have them) and the reason why as well.
For me, I'm hard pressed to think of just one vehicle that I really like over the others. I love the scale and realistic looking on road cars, love the go anywhere monster trucks, the handling of buggies and truggies and the scale looks of some of the scale crawlers. So I'll break it down by category On road: Tamiya TRF415 Buggy: Tamiya DB-01 Durga Truggy: Losi 8ight-T Monster Truck / Crawler: Traxxas Summit General Basher: Traxxas Brushless E-Revo Scale Truck: Tamiya Toyota Tundra High-lift

Re: What's your favorite RC Truck, Buggy, Car, Monster Truck... etc?
I never thought I wanted a buggy until I picked up a used brushless Team Associated B4.1. Now, it's my favourite overall. For general bashing and wet/snowy weather, my Traxxas 1/16th brushless Summit is it. Honorable mention: I love my Losi Micro SCT. It's just fun in a small package.

First on my list would be my Baja 5SC for the sound and smell of the gas engine and the wow factor of a 1/5 scale.

The Baja 5 SC is definitely a nice truck. Would love to have one myself but nowhere for me to run one.

Re: What's your favorite RC Truck, Buggy, Car, Monster Truck... etc?
Maybe it is because it is the newest (to me) but the TC5 I just got is so much fun to drive. Even in stock class it has enough zip to be fun and handles really well.
I think my next one is going to be a Losi 22 or 22T (I have nowhere to use a T but I still want one). |

XRAY T3 2012. I loved my first one so much that I bought a second.
I find nothing more thrilling than racing Modified sedan. Unfortunately I don't get to do it as often as I'd like. Last edited by Dave Locke; 06-16-2012 at 02:09 PM. |

I've loved my 2WD Slash since I bought it. Upgraded to CC460Kv BL with Lipo's and piles of other upgrades too. Raced it for one season (with terrible placings) but now it's just fun to rip around the neighbourhood with.
With some RPM lights installed:  Ready for race day:

I would have to say my Clod's are at the least of my favorite all time MonsterTruck for the past 25 years. Their true 100% old skool MonsterTruck and great for doing restro projects.

Re: What's your favorite RC Truck, Buggy, Car, Monster Truck... etc?
I've got my Savage X SS and my MIRV. Love them both, though I think I'm done with nitro. Just too glitcy for me now.
One things I'm wanting to get is RC4WD's Trail Finder 2. Been watching DJMedic build his and it's certainly a beautiful scale truck chassis. A bit pricey but you get what you pay for. The Kyosho Blizzard is another one I've been looking at. That would be sweet for the winter.
