Although both the Traxxas Maxx 4S RTR Brushless 4x4 RC Monster Truck with WideMAXX and the Traxxas Slash VXL Brushless 2WD RC Truck w/TSM are both high-quality RC Trucks, there are some key differences between the two that may make one more appealing to you than the Other. The Maxx 4S is a much larger truck than the Slash VXL, so if size is important to you, then the Maxx 4S may be the better choice. The Maxx 4S also has four-wheel drive capabilities, while the Slash VXL only has two-wheel drive. This means that the Maxx 4S will be able to handle more challenging terrain than the Slash VXL. If you are mostly interested in speed, however, then the Slash VXL may be a better pick since it has a higher top speed than the Maxx 4S.
