I’m a big rig freak and operate a twin steer concrete truck for a living so this is a must have for me 👍🏻

[@FCKy613]

This is going to be my intro into scale crawling. I drive big trucks and play a lot of Snow Runner so this will be perfect for me.

[@gatorrcgames]

Just when I think I won't buy another traxxas, they come out with this beast.

[@andrewrichey7374]

Yeah they sure are awesome, specially with all the lights at night, love my night runs. What a beautiful rig, appreciate you sharing I’ll be following for more 👍👍😎

[@capturetoday67]

What a beast. I’m looking forward to seeing everyones customizations. This is a cool one for sure.

[@crawlersncustoms]

Yea I think people will get creative with it!

[@bestamerica]

hi C T... ' i already have one good traxxas stampede truck with 6 wheels in 2008... see my channel video

@@crawlersncustoms what wheels are the “Alcoa” wheels? Wanna know so I can get ‘em.

[@crawlersncustoms]

Am just loving it...

[@ateuprc659]

Great video!!! Well done!!

[@crawlersncustoms]

Thanks. Trying to get better with each video.

[@drodsrcs4137]

Nice job on the video. Finally Traxxas isn’t over charging for one of their vehicles. It always seems like you are just paying for the name. Look forward to what’s you come out with for this build. I’ve always been a big fan of your stuff, people keep trying to buy my F450.

[@crawlersncustoms]

Thanks for the kind words 🤛🏼

[@rcairforceone]

I hope they release a clear body soon, or the aftermarket does. When I worked for Sunbelt Rentals I drove a tandem axle rollback, I'd love to replicate 'ol Pickle.

[@crawlersncustoms]

Same.

[@clairecooper3848]

Great unboxing with non of the overthetop excitement of some other channels . 👏 I think Traxxas missed a trick with the fixed bed and no winch fitted …. ohh and a proper front radiator grill Just my twopeneth 🤭

[@crawlersncustoms]

I think you’ll be happy with what I know is in the works!

[@clairecooper3848]

@@crawlersncustoms I look forward to yur upgrades 👀

[@Loves2Jacket]

Thanks for showing the crawler on there! Time to sell my trailer and get this instead 🤙🏽

[@crawlersncustoms]

Keep the trailer! There a RX hitch under the back bumper. Carry and tow!

[@ryand4786]

It’s a cool rig, no doubt, but it should have a functional deck for the money,

[@RcDungeon]

I think this might become my next crawler purchase especially now they come with the winch now as well. Thanks for sharing this, I'll check out your site I'm assuming you have some parts for it on there by now?

[@crawlersncustoms]

It’s fun. And no specific products yet. I tend to have a lot of projects running at the same time. I’m excited to show the next one but it’s been hard to film with too much background noise lately.

[@RcDungeon]

@@crawlersncustoms oh ok, yah great channel you do some top notch work definitely will be staying tuned for more

[@bikerman6907]

Looks Awesome👍😊This one or TRX6 Gelandewagen... tough pick🤔🤔

[@eleventwelves]

excellent unboxing review, i really like the size and black chrome. the two big disappointments are the body clip holes and the sticker front grill but i am still definitely getting one

[@crawlersncustoms]

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, I totally agree. I know some magnetic mounts are in the works as well as different grill options. Ill be working on some machined parts for this truck: Headache rack, then scale front and rear bumpers.

[@eleventwelves]

@@crawlersncustoms awesome! looking forward to getting one of these beasts asap!

[@c.bro.572]

IMO they missed the mark by not making the bed tilt. If I'm going to haul my RC around for realism, i think being able to load and unload without the magic god hand is required.

[@erikmoore7402]

Excellent unboxing. I can't help but notice you have a cybertruck back there, Is that something purchasable somewhere?

[@crawlersncustoms]

Thx! I forgot about that! It’s an element rc knight runner IFS chassis with custom wheel covers sliders and bumpers to fit the body from a toy grade hotwheels cyber truck.

[@joeyd2105]

Man o man, can I pre order the bada$$ roll back bed your about to build.. lol but seriously.....

[@crawlersncustoms]

I’m actually working on a few other parts but I know a roll back is almost ready too 👀

[@fastrob521]

I love this video

[@crawlersncustoms]

👀🤓

[@jaredsay3331]

I own the trx6 snap-on hauler and I pre order two ultimate hauler so I can put my snap-on hauler back in the box

[@thatsmyrc]

Im not worried I'll make mine a hydraulic tilt roll back 8-)

[@ChrisGorman87]

Most flatbed tow trucks do not have rails on the bed for obvious reasons. I would just remove them cuz it is still scale.

[@crawlersncustoms]

Yup I’ve thought about that! Doing some changes very very soon!

[@donniesmith5355]

Would be awesome to see it have a functinal row back bed that goes in and out and up and down like a wrecker

[@crawlersncustoms]

It will pretty soon 🤘🏼

[@drinkbeerandshiftgears3266]

Plz try to fit a traxxas slash on it and post it as a vid or a short cuz I was thinking of buying it for my slash to have it as a trail rig hauler

[@crawlersncustoms]

Good idea.

[@rishacircuit1594]

There’s has to be a way of trimming those rails that stick up on the bed and putting some kind of extensions on the sides right? To make it wide enough for a crawler?

[@crawlersncustoms]

That’s on my very short list. Digging in this week. 1/2” on either side would do the trick.

[@travisbennett5813]

I have a cen 450 with an extendable boom and wheel lift. Not as pretty as yours. I also have a umg10 thats streched and has a functional rollback bed and winch. It has a 450 cab cut down to a 2door. All functional from remote

[@johnyoung9822]

The chassis would make a good base to a custom winnebago built.

[@crawlersncustoms]

I really dig the global expedition type vehicles. Not sure which direction we’re going to take this build yet.

[@erickhart6159]

Kind of regret spending $1300 hundred bucks on the snap on edition before now!

[@crawlersncustoms]

Id leave the Snap On on the shelf, and then mod the standard version. Its one of the reasons I never looked more closely at the Snap On truck. Too rare to heavily modify.

[@keithenking8888]

I've put a CEN F450 on the back of mine

[@crawlersncustoms]

Me too, just barely fits.

[@jaredsay3331]

We have to wait till the clear body come out

[@dustinalexander982]

Idk much about trx4s but u said lowering it would it be better to do a portal delete or smaller shocks it how would u accomplish that? Thanks in advance and

[@crawlersncustoms]

There are aftermarket kits that replace the portal ends of the axles with straight axles. That would lower the truck about 15mm or so. And then going from 90mm shocks to 80mm would bet around 1” lower over all.

[@Michael-xj2mx]

How much would a tow truck bed with the tow boom cost?? I'm very interested in getting one..

[@crawlersncustoms]

Thx. That tow bed may never see the light of day. Lots of challenges to overcome to get it to a reproducible state.

[@hillbillymoose2486]

I'm trying to remake my work truck but idk where to start I'm new to the rc world

[@crawlersncustoms]

It can be a challenging task.

[@jaredsay3331]

1:10 shop has made grills and accessories

[@Lokithefeline]

The snap-on version is shorter and smaller

[@erickhart6159]

Shouldn't be that hard to pull the flatbed off and install a trailer hitch for a scale trailer?? I guess you might have to cut the back of the frame to move the back lights forward.

[@crawlersncustoms]

Hard to say, but after the roll back kit is installed I plan to push another rock up a hill. Id like to eventually have a wheel lift as well. That will take a lot of work to execute but I'm going to give it a shot.

[@thatsmyrc]

If you take the wheels off the hauler I will buy them

[@420.1]

Could make an awesome replica of diesel brothers trucks

[@crawlersncustoms]

Yea it could!

[@billythekid7122]

Cut the rails off I think it would even look better Plus your truck will sit more flat on the flatbed

[@The-Warm-voice1359]

Great truck from trx But this truck needs 2 thing Until become wonderful The thing no.1 she needs winch in the rear cab so that can pul up the cars? The thing no.2 the surface needs come back And move forward via the remote 👍

[@crawlersncustoms]

All of that is happening very soon 🤛🏼👀

[@The-Warm-voice1359]

@@crawlersncustoms i agree i wish that 😊

[@Lokithefeline]

Have you developed that aluminum bumper yet he was talking about

[@crawlersncustoms]

I did make a prototype but haven’t worked on the hauler for some time now. I’ve been working on 2 other projects but I’m sure I’ll get back to that one soon. Thanks for checking in.

@@crawlersncustoms cool thanks for the reply, i have been lookin for an alloy option that looks like the stock one with a fairlead in it.

Now traxxas you have NO reason not to make this a semi cab and make us a trailer!
