Thanks for the info. I’m sure that the electric is the way to start, but the sight, sound and smell of the gas was pretty cool.
I’m not planning to race, only get a truck or two that my son and I could run around the yard and neighborhood. And I guess I’m not looking for a monster truck either. More of a pre-runner or stadium truck. Something that could run off of the curb and through the grass and keep going.
The Kyosho buggy looks hot. But might be a bit high to start with. I was thinking about something like this:

These trucks are RTR, but are they really? What else will I need to get started?
Also, are the radio’s ‘programmable’? If I were to get two, would they have the same or different frequencies?
