Default Need Advice (XTM X-FACTOR)

Is this a good looking truck for crawling. I might be making a trade for it and just wanted to get a 2nd opinion. I know electric is better but this is one of my only offers so far.

It has the motor up front. Is that a good thing? It also has a cooling fan with I guess is for the slow pace of crawling.

Im trading a 4tec and a micro t for it.

Thanks

I wouldn't.
Before I'd trade for a nitro crawler I'd sell the others and buy an electric.
A much better choice with better results, IMHO

Lets just say I did trade. Would it be about the same value for a 4tec 3.3 and a micro t. He says he's got $900 in the truck. How old do you think this truck is?

THanks for your opinions.

just by looking at the pics I can tell you he has some money invested into that truck..If you dont want that truck i will be more than happy to take it. The XTM X-factor is a awsome truck, I own two of them. If you want to rock crawl at a competition level than I strongly suggest a electrcic powered crawler becuse they will be geared a lot better for crawling. If you are looking for a back yard basher than the X-Factor is a fun truck
