New Jeep Gets Stuck on New Trail - Err Woods 1

That is one fine looking truck! Congrats on the new addition!

Thanks! I love the detail in this body. I spent near a year debating what my next RC would be. At one point, I almost went for the Enduro Trailrunner, but in the end, the Axial won out. It was funded in part by selling the Arrma Senton. I think I heard a rumour a while back you got a new truck as well. Truth?

@@RyanRKJ yeah, I got a kraton 4s. I wanted something for the back yard in winter. 4wd for acceleration and large diameter tires for better handling bumps. It's fantastic in the snow with the knobby Dboots Backflip tires. It eats parts though. Lots of upgrades. Had I known what I was getting into I would have gotten either something smaller or the 6s version running on 4s. I don't think its worth selling, what do you think I could get for it?

@@Shimstock74 Fast trucks definitely break more than slow trucks in my experience as well. With my Senton, it seemed like after most runs i was needing to repair something, whether it was just a glue and tape job, or bearings. I did not have any major failures though. It was not long before I started thinking about selling it. Very quickly though, I realized it was not worth too much used. I kept it a little while longer, and ran it occasionally, but ultimately did decide to sell. I sold it, for about 38% of the pre-tax purchase price. It had no upgrades, leaky shocks and cracked bumpers, along with all the expected scratches / wear and tear. I listed it on Facebook marketplace, and since I was driving between Niagara and Kingston, I had most of the province as a potential buyer. I ended up meeting up with the buyer in Oshawa. I had a fair bit of interest at the price I listed it at.

Good stuff! Looks like a nice, chill trail to relax and bump along.

[@RyanRKJ]

Thanks! I crafted the trail to be enjoyable for hiking, but also have some obstacles that pose a moderate challenge to tiny trucks. I plan to continue the trail, but I'm not sure I'll make any more substantial progress before spring time.

Cool snowy trail run! Liked and subrcribed!

[@RyanRKJ]

Thanks Brian. I'm excited to explore more trails with my RCs now that the snow is melting.
