Which rock crawler to get? Plz help!
I'm as new as you can get with crawling and know nothing about it. I'm no going to be using the truck for ONLY crawling, but a somewhat bash truck also.. We don't have too many rocks in Pensacola, FL, so I will mostly set up obstacles and rocks and what not.. I own two nitro vehicles; a Jato 3.3 and a T-maxx 2.5. I think I want the summit. So far I've been the most impressed with it. The only thing is; its EXPENSIVE. It there any good crawler that will go everywhere like the summit? But now as expensive?
Thanks,
Hayden

Simple answer, No.
The Summit is a different animal than a crawler. You might want to check out a rock racer if you have the need for speed

If you want to bash and do some mild crawling, the Summit isn't a bad choice. I have one and while it's no match for a dedicated crawler, my dedicated crawlers can beat it for bashing. People seem to dislike it since it's not great at either - but it's decent at both and quite fun.

Well, I see you already made your purchase, but... I have a Clod based crawler/basher that does VERY WELL at both. My reccomendation would've have been to build yourself a custom Clod based rig, but I was too late!
