Comparisons

While both the Traxxas Sledge 6S 4WD Brushless RTR Monster Truck and the Traxxas Slash 4x4 Brushed 1/10 Short Course RTR Truck w/Batt & Charger are both remote-controlled trucks designed for off-road fun, there are some key differences between the two models. The Sledge 6S is a bigger and more powerful truck, with a brushless motor that gives it more speed and torque than the Slash 4x4. The Sledge 6S also has four-wheel drive for better traction on rough terrain, while the Slash 4x4 only has two-wheel drive. The Slash 4x4 is less expensive than the Sledge 6S, but it's also not as fast or as rugged.
