Re: TLR's new 22T truck

I'm looking for one of these, if someone wants to get rid of theirs. I'd be willing to trade my xxt or my xx for one + some cash. Folks on RCtech think that they're worth as much used as new. :roll: they are still pretty new so you may not be seeing such great deals now but when people stare gettin...

I would advise to do kit setup firs...
