The Traxxas Maxx 4S RTR Brushless 4x4 RC Monster Truck with WideMAXX LiPo Combo Package and the Traxxas Rustler 4x4 VXL RTR Truck & 60+MPH 3S LiPo Combo are both great options for anyone looking for a high-performance RC truck. Both trucks come with a powerful brushless motor and a LiPo battery, making them capable of reaching speeds of over 60mph. The Maxx also comes with an upgraded suspension system that allows it to handle rough terrain better than the Rustler.
