The Traxxas X-Maxx 8S 4WD RC Monster Truck is a larger, more powerful truck than the Traxxas Slash RTR 1/10 2WD Short Course Racing RC Truck. It has eight wheels instead of four, and it is brushless. The X-Maxx also has a longer wheelbase and is wider. The Slash is shorter and narrower. Both trucks are made for off-road use, but the X-Maxx is better suited for rough terrain because of its size and power. The Slash is faster and more agile, making it better for racing on a track or in an open area.
