[backtomyroots]

Yikes ! "Final Release Date" November 15, 2007. Wow - glad I paid in May 2007 . This thing better be worth the wait. Actually, it looks as if it will be very interesting. I won't however hold my breath for a 4wd version . I don't have that much patience. Watch my build here:

These picture do look a littl better than the last ones. I like the little splash guard that is on the steering servo. I wounder if a Hilux body would fit? Are they still going with the same body as before? Or have they changed that up a bit.

I still really like this truck,but im a little scared of the wait.

No it didn't - that was supposed to be sarcasm . I'm just getting very, very, very anxious as I could have used those funds elsewhere. cheers.

That is a nice looking truck. Is price a bit more than the F350? Which one would you go for? It will be a tough call for me if I have to choose.

[backtomyroots]

That is a nice looking truck. . . . . buy both

Go for it . I bought the Thundertech CORR (well pre-paid anyway) then built a High Lift. Loved the High Lift so much I'm now building a second ! If you can't decide do the next best thing - get both !

As for parts - I think some of the items used on the CORR are readily available - I think it's pieced together from several manufacturers with the custom frame. Just a guess though.

I think I'll have to order one of these, even if it's only for the reason that it has great scale looks. I'm hoping it'll handle like a beast too. I'm thinking; brushless set up, but will depend on the strength of the running gear. I like the fact that its built from prper parts too. My initial thought was that it's like a modern SRB. Gonna put my order in tomorrow.
