Now I have to learn about painting cars so I can have it in Area 51 color.
Can I send an RC car body to a body shop for painting? :unsure:

Since I ordered a 1:1 scale Badlands as well, I wonder how hard it would be to change the front grill to match on the TRX4?

It will be neat when someone starts offering interiors or maybe a topless body for this.
Pretty easy to change the color and glad they at least had a red so I can change to RaceR, but yeah, there are quite a few places around me that would paint it without my interaction, or at least paint it if I gave them it ready to paint and all prepped. Some hobby places also have provisions for having paint work done, or find your local clubs and normally someone does this and can assist. Personally I am just going to do my own, I have done die cast models and the like in the past and find it fun to perform myself.

As for changing the front end, I imagine 3D printing could solve this easily with some paint, so I hope either someone makes a replacement part, or if I ever get to it, I would try myself with my 3D printer.

Oh hell yeah! The traxxas TRX platform is awesome. Just finished building a defender 110. But I may have to remove the 110 body and go with the bronco. Of course the wheel base probably shorter. I think the trx has two wheelbase options.

its probably already been mentioned but this comes with dual lockers and two speed trans. Most RC crawlers are only fun for crawling, because the diffs are spooled. With this one it’s lock on the fly. Can’t wait to get one.

I just bought my first crawler, a TRX4 Sport, last week and put the deposit down today for the red Bronco at my local hobby shop! They said they should have them in by the first part of June and they’ll have there demo model to see next week! I can’t wait!!
Will they send you an email on Thursday with your production date?

I’m not familiar with Traxxas, for the $550 does that include everything you need to run? Or do you need a controller and battery pack also? Looks like a fun hobby to try.

Looks like it does come with everything from the description on the Traxxas Site. there are several tabs farther down the landing page with more information.

Lighting coming soon! Would love to outfit one with light bars, winch, etc. :cool:

You need to order batteries and a charger.

these are fun, but the price is a bit steep for my taste. I have one of their monster trucks, crazy fast, but last time I ran it something broke cccrrrrrckkkk and it no longer runs. I'll probably just sell it to somebody though, way too fast for my driveway and tears up the landscaping which gets me in trouble, LOL.

Ordered mine at my local Hobbytown. They even showed me the accessories (sorry for the glare on the photos) that are forthcoming, they were pretty pumped about it.

They also showed me the official WARN Winch for this line of rigs. OMG. :LOL:

Ended up having a 45 minute conversation with the employees and some customers about the Broncos. 👍

Mine will ship the last week in May. I got it to match my CO BL with Squatch & Lux. I told my wife that I had ordered a 3rd Bronco and she blew a gasket - LOL.
