Comparisons

These two remote control trucks are both made by the same manufacturer and are designed for similar off-road environments. However, there are some key differences between the two models. The Traxxas Stampede XL-5 2WD RTR RC Truck is a two-wheel drive truck that does not come with a battery or charger, while the Traxxas Slash 4x4 Ultimate Short Course Truck & 60MPH 3S LiPo Combo is a four-wheel drive truck that comes with a battery and charger. The Stampede is slightly smaller than the Slash and has a lower top speed of 15mph, while the Slash can reach speeds of up to 60mph. Both trucks are durable and rugged, but the Slash will be able to handle more extreme terrain due to its four-wheel drive system.
