Not one person I know will buy this truck. But the Xmaxx is selling great around here. This truck could be a top seller if they would put in a proper electric motor. Instead it will be a failure. Which is too bad, because it looks great other than the gas engine.
I agree.

It would be interesting if they made it in an electric version. I'll stick with my X-Maxx.
