wanting r/c construction equipment

[weemanch]

okay like all of us, i am wanting to buy various construction equipment. problem is it seems like everyone it seems like makes there own. which i am assuming has to do with the high cost i see of buying various things. i wouldn't mind a excavator a dozer and either make a dump trailer or something of that nature. that trailer to me seems like something i could manage.

so is that my only option buy a high priced one from a site like rc4wd.com or something like that? just can't fathom spending 5k on a rc car when i would love to spend that on a real car.
