Traxxas TRX-4 Mercedes-Benz G 500 Trail Truck (Red)

The Traxxas TRX-4 Mercedes-Benz G 500 Trail Truck gives you a scale trail rig with serious crawling hardware underneath. It uses shaft-driven 4WD, a 2-speed transmission with remote shifting, and 4 gear differentials with remote locking, so you get a truck that can switch from relaxed trail driving to slower technical crawling.
