Comparisons

There are a few key differences between the Traxxas X-Maxx 8S 4WD RTR Monster Truck Combo w/4S 6700mAh & SINGLE Charger and the Traxxas Sledge 6S 4WD Brushless RTR Monster Truck w/6S LiPo & Dual Charger Combo. The most notable difference is that the X-Maxx has 8 drive wheels while the Sledge has only 6. This gives the X-Maxx more traction and makes it better suited for off-road conditions. The X-Maxx also has a more powerful motor, which means it can reach higher speeds. However, the Sledge is able to turn tighter corners thanks to its shorter wheelbase.
