...thanks for that review. I've the coyote 2.1 since two years. I drove really often in all over the year without any issue. It's simple but so durable. I only can recommend this truck: drive, drive, drive....and no problems. But I never drive with any truck through deep water because for me these are not submarins.

Thanks for sharing I agree totally, but I do actually enjoy a puddle now and then!🤣🤣

I have the charisma. Taco has been flawless ever since I had it and I had it for three years that was my start to the 1/10 scale and went on from there to Traxxas.

Nice! I almost got the taco but I do love the brat body.

Probably one of my most durable rigs. Needs some shock tuning and lower ride height, but not much else. I have 9 rigs and trail every week 2-4hrs

Next up for me is some tuning, and I do agree great rig!

All good info spot on. Got mine for the #Dentside body. Put it up against my scx10.3 and kept up. Steering link upgrade is all it needs. Easy tutorial on carisma yt page on switching from ni-mh to lipo. It wakes up alot I recommend that asap.

Put an element transmission with a bowhouse skid. It’s makes a pretty nice setup

As a kid in the 80's the rear seats were the best 👌 especially the grab handles!

I have the Range Rover (same chassis). Not had any issues. I have beat it to death. I call it my beater. 😅 I did put a set of FMS axles under it from the Willys. It geared it way down, which I prefer. I can't remember why I did the swap though...🤔. I may have been bored. 😂

For some reason they only make the body for their 1/24! But do have a nice land rover body!
