Thank you, I have been so far. I wasn't planning on getting rid of it, just wanted to paint a new one. But if I decide to I'll be sure to let you know.

Thanks. Got a 12 yr old who would love something he could accessorize. A sorta-scaler would be perfect.

What body are you thinking of getting?

I haven't really looked in to it, I just enjoyed painting this one and want to do another. Maybe a Cherokee or pickup of some sort. Hmm.

I really dig the Cherokee.

Any idea where RC4WD ships from? I was comparing prices on what I got and I think I came out ok. Mainly because a couple things were on sale. Either way, I'm excited.

I made this thread and have pretty much been neglecting it. So here are some pictures from the other day and today. I'm far from the photographer, but maybe this will help me get it together a little.

This is at Knights Ferry, CA.










This was today at a local reservoir.








This was a couple weeks ago, one of my first times out with it. Notice the details I've since added.


Overall I'm really enjoying this thing. I've messed around with some setup and found things I like, and others things that just don't work. Currently, I think my shocks need softer springs. Other than that, I'm digging it! And yes, that is a homemade roof-rack. HA! I'm gonna make another one soon and clean it up a little.
