Comparisons

Both the Traxxas Sledge 6S 4WD Brushless RTR Monster Truck and the Traxxas Slash 4x4 Brushed 1/10 Short Course RTR Truck are great RC Trucks. They both have their pros and cons, so it really depends on what you're looking for in an RC truck as to which one is better for you. The Sledge has more power and speed, thanks to its brushless motor, making it better suited for off-road racing or bashing. It's also slightly larger than the Slash, making it a better choice if you're looking for a more realistic-sized truck. However, the Slash is cheaper and comes with a battery and charger included, making it a better choice if you're on a budget or just starting out in RC. It's also smaller and lighter than the Sledge, making it easier to transport and store.
