The LaTrax 1/18 Desert Prerunner 4WD Electric RTR is a great choice for those looking for an RC truck that is both durable and stylish. The Traxxas Slash 4x4 Ultimate Short Course Truck w/TQi & Telemetry is also a great choice for those looking for an RC truck that is both durable and stylish.

The LaTrax Desert Prerunner comes with a 2.4GHz radio system, which provides greater range and interference-free operation.

The LaTrax Desert Prerunner also includes LED lights in the front and rear of the vehicle, which can be turned on or off as desired. This feature can help you see the vehicle in low-light conditions and can also add to the realism of your driving experience. The Traxxas Slash 4x4 Ultimate Short Course Truck does not include LED lights. Finally, the LaTrax Desert Prerunner includes a LiPo battery pack, charger, and AA batteries – everything you need to get started driving right away! The Traxxas Slash 4x4 Ultimate Short Course Truck requires you to purchase these items separately.
