New Traxxas Crawler. - firesprink281 - 11-15-2008
and where on the site does traxxas call it a rock crawler? i see "extreme terrain 4x4" and "all terrain vehicle" so how could you say they are pushing it as a crawler? it seems to me that you bash every design that isn't yours.

All I said bad about the SC8 and Slayer is that they should both have electric versions. YOu havent seen anything I have said over on RCC about the new redcat racing trucks. The only thing I have ever "bashed" when it comes to a design its this particular truck and even then its that they are pushing it as something its not and thats an all new truck.

Then you didnt listen to any of the reps... Every person that came up to talk to a rep was told about how its the best rock crawler on the market etc.
I agree with Firesprinks post that no-one wants to claim the truck in their catagory. To me its a great basher but VERY over price.

As long as you like it thats fine, I don't have to like it.
The truck is a bit like using a spoon for spaghetti when you need a fork. Yeah it works, but it's the not the best tool for the job.
What is the title of this thread? Yeah Traxxas Crawler. So though it doesn't say crawler, people everywhere are putting that term on it. What is in doing in all the videos? Rock crawling or at least trying. Thats why I termed it Rock racer early on in this thread.

Who cares if it can crawl with you "pro" crawlers. its not your market so get the hell out of the discussion since you can only talk s#$& about how "much it sucks" etc. Whatever dude, trolls here trolls everywhere. It's so god damn annoying. Normally I never start nothing but this really got my goat...I agree with new guy. WTF its got technology behind it it must suck ass since it doesnt appeal to you.
Boy oh boy ain't you special! You always bitched about crawlers so why start your crap now! You want one, ya know it says it's a crawler which you said " suck and are slow" just to quote ya! It's not in your market so go read what you just told everyone else ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Well I made the decision that I am going to purchase this truck. It just looks like it would be a really fun truck. Be able to crawl and do some high speed fun as well.

Yeah it's a good basher. Its more of a race truck then it is a capable crawler. As long as you keep in mind that the rig is a race designed platform and not a crawler designed platform you'll love it. I'm sure you can still have some fun on the rocks. If anything maybe it will open new doors and you will get hopelessly addicted to crawling and therefore buy a purpose built crawler someday. In the snow I bet it would be fun. It's a universal dual sport mobile. Good at nothing directly but useable at everything which makes it a fun machine to own. I'd have one as a vacation truck, seems on vacation I'm never sure what there is to bash on.

it looks like a nice truck, but way to rich for my blood
