Probably a GOOD thing those rims are not around anymore Alfy..

What is with almost everyone's dislike of offroad trucks?

Sure, a stiff suspension is not very useful, but look at those and tell me that they are not cool:

A nicely done offroad truck would IMO certainly stand out at a show and not just because of its height.

The real off road trucks are cool and if the models are done right they are cool too, but the way this one looked it was more toy like than anything. Aluminum wheels and chrome accessories don't really look off road. Big wheels alone don't make an off road truck.

It is not that it had a stiff suspension it had no suspension. Yes the oil field and off road trucks are cool but it has to be done right and TamiyaCowboy here on the forum did it right.
