Army Tanker Truck
Here is a truck my dad did for me. I bought this with my money I saved up and my dad put radio gear in it to make it run better and then we redid the paint and added a Tamiya cow killer on it.

Re: Army Tanker Truck
Great job. That truck looks like some of the military tankers that are at a National Guard maintenance garage near my house.

Re: Army Tanker Truck
Got a picture of the box to know what to look for? How is the quality? Anything to look out for?

Well I can tell you that you dont want to wast your time looking for one. They are junk the body is not bad but the running gear is junk. They are better after you put in better servo and esc and radio but not by much. They are great for a first truck for a kid like what we did here but not for long as they wont tow much. As I type this, this truck is now tore down and and we are putting the body on a 6x6 frame and there is no sleeper left.. |
Re: Army Tanker Truck
Aahhhh, thanks for the scoop! I think I'll just get some 1/10 scale RTR's and see how I like construction equipment before I take the plunge. :p

Re: Army Tanker Truck
This truck reminds my of my days In Iraq 915's are fun to drive

Re: Army Tanker Truck
That is one mean looking rig. I really like it. Great satin finish. On one hand, I love lots of chrome on trucks, on the other, I love when they are COMPLETELY de-chromed, military style, just flat green and black.

Nice truck, I really like the paint job-very realistic looking. I think paint jobs are always the hardest to get right.
