Comparisons
The Traxxas Unlimited Desert Racer 4WD vs the Traxxas Rustler VXL Brushless are two very different RC Trucks. The Desert Racer is a true 4WD with full-time all-wheel drive, while the Rustler is only 2WD. The Desert Racer also has LED lights, while the Rustler does not. The Desert Racer comes with a 6S 50+MPH battery and charger combo, while the Rustler comes with a 70+MPH LiPo combo. So, if you are looking for a true 4WD RC truck with LED lights and a 6S 50+MPH battery and charger combo, then the Desert Racer is the truck for you. If you are looking for a 2WD RC truck with no LED lights but a much faster top speed, then the Rustler is the better choice.
