Comparisons

The Traxxas Rustler VXL Brushless RTR RC Truck w/TSM is a more expensive and higher quality RC truck than the Traxxas Slash 4x4 Brushed 1/10 Short Course RTR Truck w/Batt & Charger & LED Lights. The Rustler VXL has a brushless motor that makes it faster and more powerful than the Slash 4x4. It also comes with a TSM (Traxxas Stability Management) system that helps keep the truck stable while driving. The Slash 4x4 is a good entry-level RC truck, but it doesn't have the same features or performance as the Rustler VXL.
