Cool truck!
Don`t understand all the complaining about the body shell though. It`s just a piece of thin lexan plastic. The chassii underneath (the actual truck) looks awesome.
Nitro/Gas vs. Electric... well look at all the dirt bikes, ATVs, overbuilt & lifted offroad vehicles that people have. All these require getting up your lazy butt
and driving to a suitable location to use them. That commitment and little effort is part of the hobby.
Driving on your yard lawn or in the park gets old really fast anyways, no matter if it`s electric or nitro.
That being said...I think a useful improvement for gas but specially for nitro engines would be better noise silencers/pipes. Not for every vehicle but at least as an option part. For those rare times in a year when you do want to fire it up in your yard, or show friends, it would be nice to do so without annoying everyone else nearby.
