Honored to make your top 5 list! Thanks for all the awesome videos you do bringing attention to RC!

[@3vil8unny]

Ive seen your truck in so many articles just amazing!!! you cant even give it a rating out of 10.

[@TekinRacing]

@@3vil8unny thanks dude! It was a super fun truck to build!

[@emgee44]

Love the style of your truck and the tyres really help set it off, where did you get those ?

[@TekinRacing]

@@emgee44 they are from RC4WD and you're right, they are perfect! I'm glad they offer them, they are a great big truck tire.

That Dakar truck is awesome! Looks like KAMAZ

[@maxman1244]

I have a box of spare crawler parts and I had NO IDEA what the flat bendy bar was! Mini Leaf spring! That's so cool!

[@nicholasbarber4193]

One of my teachers in HS way back in the day used to have a crew cab square body with the same green color, that was one of the factory options. However, as far as I know, they only made crew cabs from 73-87 in long box; back then only 6' and 8' boxes were available, but it looks awesome as a custom where someone cut the frame down and a 6' box down to make it. I always wanted to make my 78 an extended cab, which was never available, but once I finally rebuild it someday I'll probably just keep it a regular cab; I don't have the time it would take to buy another cab, cut it down, get windows made, etc... lol Growing up kills dreams sometimes. Ha!

[@amaricareyworld4528]

Anyone else think that 4Runner was real st first like if u did

[@ll-hotboyjr-ll9400]

No

[@chadkyletheman41]

Perhaps it’s times to learn how to construct a sentence, so it readable. See what I did there? Like if you did.

[@charleswilliams7766]

That square body was sick and the best build

[@matk4731]

WOW 😲 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤 The bar has certainly been raised in 2019. The engineering is outstanding .True master craftsmen. 👍🏻👍🏻🙃🙃

[@sjs5395]

This is so cool, growing up as a kid I always wanted an RC like these. They didn’t have a lot of things like led lights and working low riders and all the realistic kinds of parts. It’s hard to justify paying $600 or so on RC stuff when I can fix on my car with that money.

[@stubbopolis]

Just wanted to say thanks for all the crawler content! Built my first axial kit after running all sorts of racing buggies and such and it’s such a great change of pace. Glad I came across this channel and I look forward to 2020

[@larshansen3186]

Those trucks are amazing my personal favorite was the 4-runner or the tekin desert truck

[@Poizdrc]

Ive been out of rc for so long i thought the forums were dead. Good to see this one staying current. Ive since gotten back into rc scale building. And would love to share it there. Love the channel matt

[@ReadySetRC]

Once again thank you Matt for all the great content. Little over 1 year subbed to the SBG forum. Love all the content on there as well. Looking forward to a great 2020.

[@davebutler4959]

Fantastic builds!! It’s great to see people who go above and beyond and are willing to help others learn these skills.

[@the1khronohs40]

Wow! Those are some insane builds! Dakar truck and the crew cab being my absolute favorites! Rear leaf springs on that chevy just KILLS IT! EXCELLENT! 😍

[@forrestcrabbe]

These are all incredible builds. I might like that ice cream truck the most 🤘🍻🤘

[@thepaddychannel]

Thanks Matt, for entertaining us throughout the year looking forward to 2020. The Forum is great and I would encourage others to join. It’s a great pool of knowledge and I have been helped out a lot since I joined earlier in 2019. I just need to start documenting and sharing my projects.

[@jordanwurz1024]

This channels got some of the best scale crawlers I’ve ever seen! And you present it well

[@SirDevious1]

All of those rigs were absolutely fantastic!!

[@walterbryan1798]

They're all great, but I think the 4Runner is my favorite.

[@dburton7929]

Time is flying by !!!!! Great Channel, I appreciate all the work you put into it. Lookin forward to your 2020 line up. Happy New Year 👍🏻👍🏻

[@joss67uk]

Happy New Year guys. One thing that's hard to appreciate is the time and effort that goes into these builds to get them to that standard that videos and photos just cant show. My Axials were Christmas projects, built over the Holiday, my MFAB FJ/HJ 60 was my 2018 Christmas project that I'm still building 1 year later, its getting there slowly *haha* …...

[@jeffreybentz7097]

Awesome Top 5 list of your favorites👍👍 I like the old Chevy Crew Cab the most, it's got a LOT of character. Great video!!!

[@SVOCRAZY]

Another great video Matt, and well chosen top 5 builds. Keep up the great work!!

[@andyrichey1192]

Wow awesome builds for sure!! Appreciate you sharing. Looking forward to the new year.

[@RyOnDrums]

These are unbelievable

[@rcexpedition1529]

You and your channel have been a major inspiration for my family this year. I have 5 kids and our new family hobby is rc. We all have rigs including my wife. We spend several hours each week on the trail and even are working on a you tube channel. (Mostly as a way to remember our trips at this point) Thanks so much for the inspiring work you do!

[@user-bd5md5cm2j]

Did you do a KZbin of your exposition?? Great things for families. I've been going to do it for years..... Still haven't 😁👍

[@wackyrc1394]

Jaw dropping scale creativity and engineering, as often said 'next level', my personal winner the FJ55 which is absolutely fantastic to my mind, and surely my second favorite is Pardonmynoob's MILPOOL Chevy, which definitely has 'The Look'. Thank you all and the best for 2020, can't wait!!

[@rcupgrades911]

Damn,those are some really awesome builds. Thanks for sharing!!

A friend of mine had a real Chevy crew cab like Pardonmynoob's model. The real one was a former Air Force truck, so Air Force blue with barely discernable yellow lettering on doors.

[@evintacy7272]

All amazing builds!! Love your channel 👍👍👍

[@buckdandy4834]

2020 the year of the crawler

[@davidbanaszak562]

I love the builds.. SBG is always over the top. I don't know if I could drive my build after spending so much time to make it look like the real thing. I painted a lexan body for my element and was cringing on the first drive at the local crawler course in South Florida.. nothing like jagged coral rock to gouge all your hard work and make you want to cry...

[@tomandrews5392]

Great builders great rigs....

[@b.boogie9456]

That Blazer is nice...

[@tjenkins1126]

This gave me some inspiration to take the hobby to the next level. I love me some just getting out on trails, but that's second to the actual building of the trucks. Maybe my Kyosho outlaw kit will be much more scale, hhhmmmm...

[@MrMikef350]

Great vid matey,would really like to see more of the marlin crawler

[@scalebuildersguild]

Ask and you shall receive. Shooting a new series starting today!

[@MrMikef350]

Scale Builder's Guild ah nice one,keep seeing it in the background of your vids and it looks to have changed a bit (well the colour any way) so looking forward to this.

[@emilgabl9069]

I already own the TRX4 sport kit but I want to get another kit to totally scale out do you have any suggestions...I was looking at the SCX ii...or Enduro Sedano...or SSD or Cross Emo.

[@powcar91]

I might have to join SBG. This way I am actually committed to. Making my ideas and 3d printing them.

[@michaelhoyle3266]

Jaw dropping rigs! Inspiration for the rest of us. Maybe one of these guys could redesign the Cyber truck for Tesla. LOL.

I love this hobby!

[@trentonarney6066]

Guys like this and my friends are why after 20 years I'm getting back in. Keep it fun and spend time with those you choose to.

[@MsHigheagle]

Amazing builds my man!

[@jahmenrcbuildingasone4254]

Couldn't someone just shoot a video one time. Put it out for peeps tocsee and then Qshelf it? Nice video now I must go get a towel to wipe all my drool from looking at these builds. DEMI GOD Ty Campbell 😱🙏

Does it crawl well?

[@toddbertram6556]

The Dakar rig is badASS. But as a previous owner of a 76' fj55 gotta go with the cruiser as #1. That said, no complaints on any of the great builds.

[@dannanw98racer]

The Crawlspace South owner David's mfab Bronco should definitely be on the list....

And if he posted builds on the forum, it would definitely be considered. Keep in mind, this is just builders who have build threads.
