tedo that is a pretty bitchin 4x4 pede, makes me want to go and trade something for one.

No snow ashing for me last night it took almost an hour to get home on a normal 10-15 minute drive. But with all this weather hitting both sides of the states feel free to post up your snow/mud/etc pics everyone.

Thanks Reno. I am not really a fan of traxxas, but the 4wd pede seems like a perfect, yet simple basher. Able to run a single battery, plus the whole waterproof thing. Plus it's 4wd! I only thing, I didn't like about the the pede was the body height, so I chopped down the body posts to make it sit lower on the chassis.

Went out today for an hour bashing, and completely beat the living sheet out of it, drove it through the deepest, sloppiest puddles (close to 40 here today), and wide open speed drifts. The only thing that happened was my esc doesn't go in reverse anymore (stupid, typical trx junk, haha).

Love how these offset rims make this thing wide (yes, I know my camber needs adjustment)...

I am liking that look, you need to stop posting or I may just have to order up...

The ESC thing might just be a calibration fault with the radio. I have never had any problem with any of my VXLs past or present that wasn't my fault. I am thinking a Pede 4x4 with the waterproof VXL and a Castle 1410 would be an insanely fun little creature.

Yeah, I bought the NIB roller off of flea bay for $160. I already had a VXL system laying around, with a losi 2.4 tx/rx.

The tires and body were not necessary, just my aesthetic...

I will look into the radio issue.

Couldn't make up my mind so I picked up a Kinect instead.
