Yes you want it, yes you’ll love it, yes you will smile from ear to ear while operating it! Great quality kit that is a bit more challenging and time consuming then the king hauler kit but that’s part of the fun. I went full tamiya accessory on this including the tipper mechanism, radio, and MFC-03 sound and light system. As I was building it I locked the rear differential and I’m glad I did. With the full function suspension and off road tires that come with it the traction is pretty impressive. Not an off-road truck but very capable on dirt. Downside is it has low clearance with the battery tray on the bottom and it does drag now and then during off pavement operations. As with all of these 1/14 scale trucks it is customizable and I have seen lift kits for this truck but I haven’t invested in one yet. Great scale looks and very efficient operating too. I run the admiral 2s 7000 pack and it goes for two hours straight, hauling dirt continuous, and it only drops voltage to 3.6v a cell. Great battery choice for this truck. It’s a real work horse and I’ve been running it hard for almost a year now with no problems. Stay clear of mud though, mud is a problem. This thing is very reliable and it is a great asset in my fleet.
