I keep looking at these but I’m cheap!!! Love how you say little that’s a big truck. My kid is close to going off to college and I’m stealing his room for my growing rc collection. I find myself building new Gen 8 based trucks.
That is a pretty cheap truck Jarrod, I think they are around 300 right now. But mine sits around cause it breaks almost every run! My first hobby room was one of the kids room!🤣🤣🤣
TY for the detailed information and comparisons regarding these great 1/14 scale trucks. Fantastic color choice, beautiful detail work and spot on coverage of the vehicle highlights. Subd and excited for more...
Saw Pt 1. Good video on the pros & cons. I've been thinking about buying this truck. Like you said, great detail. Paint job looks good & I dig your cab detail work. Give you a "D for Darn Good " Watching from Payson, UT. Thxs!
That is one beautiful truck, the detail is awesome. 1704.99 + tax in canada holy moly that's an xmaxx price with bat and charger. I think the heavy tonnage is pushing 2200 + tax in states.
Great video nice detailing I am currently looking mine over and thinking what color I want to go. Although I went with kit version a bit more work involved but I was wanting to go with single rear axle design this round. I might start of with 80t Rc4wd motor same as my grand hauler. Smooth nice power. You’ve got a great collection. I too on the confusion of what size it falls under lol. Bit bigger sitting up against grand hauler, similar to my 1/12 and my beefed up 1/16 awd Mack’s etc Bruder conversions, also not that bad. I’ll just call it a good fit to my collection 🥴🤣👍🏼 Ps I contacted Rc4wd on about options for adding duelly options for rear axles. Looks like it’s set up to do so.
Had to have a 6x6, which with the bed removed looks like a candidate for a sweet rig build!! I also was thinking if I liked this one I would get the kit one, well I like it so guess what....... Thanks for the compliment and watching!! Will try for a running video!
Nice collection of truck and paint job I wonder how the Zetros compares in quality to the Cross RC ones. Would love to add a 6 x 6 to my collection, but definitely want the quality as well. What are your thoughts?
Thank you! I love both trucks detail, but if I had to pick just one for quality it would be the cross. The cross trucks just seem to be beefy ,strong components plus you build them yourself! Rc4wd/jd models come assembled but you have to go over ever inch before first use, stripped screws, no lock tight ,missing screws! And also after every run parts have broken on me already!! My cross hasn't broken one part yet and I'm pretty hard on it. But overall it comes down to price build it or rtr!
Thanks Richard! I didn't like the silver mainly cause it was like 3 different shades, but I really like mine in dark grey! Camo would also be really cool! Surprisingly most I've seen have stayed silver. P.s. mat camo are some of my favorite colors!😁
@@gerrysoldguyreview I believe I commented on one of your videos before. You gave the most honest review of your RC car and I am the type of person who wants to know what I'm getting into before I buy. Thanks again for that! 👍
Like you I’m into semis,I have custom tamyia and custom wedico,but between the beast the zetro and the heavy tonnage each one do you prefer,as far as scale,performance and look...I’m into all that,awesome video sir.
Hello Stellan! Wow that is a tough question! The beast is its own animal, not very scale chassis (more like a crawler) body is excellent scale detailed but no interior. But as of yet not one thing has broken and it performs better then I thought it would! Also with the body its very upgradeable with styrene. Now the zetros looks really good but the fine details are not as good, there is to much plastic on parts I feel should be metal. Some of the components on the chassis or a bit weird. Some of the chassis details hang to low (steps, tanks, spare tire) that they constantly get hung up reducing the performance, also only one of the three that has broken anything! And getting parts from rc4wd can be a pain! Heavy tonnage has got to be the best! (Oh the cost!) I wanted it to be the best off road semi and it doesn't disappoint!!😁 all metal, details are crazy good (as long as you check everything before driving) and it's performance is excellent! Plus nothing has broke, so I guess the answer would be tonnage best all around!
No problem, I try to help where I can! The tonnage has been good to me, I did go to the hardware store and pick up some tiny bolts just in case! Also built a 50plus inch trailer!! It can haul a load!
@@gerrysoldguyreview thank you again,awesome rc’s and custom work done to them you have done,like I said before I’m into details,that’s why I choose wedico as well,or scale art.
That thing looks amazing man. Really love it. I just ordered the 4x4 one a few days ago. Is the transmission actually plastic? It states cast on the site? Really hoping not
Sorry about that!! Just gave it the scratch test it is cast not plastic, I just made a little running video not the best but the 4x4 should really scoot along with the two speed! Thanks for commenting

Thanks for watching Scott! It has been a great truck so far!
I am really digging your videos man. Great job, and great information.
Thanks so much frederick! I try to do my best!
And thank you for subscribing 😁😁
Your trucks are awesome man
Thanks for the kind words and watching!!
Looks awesome ! I just decide to get one, but can't find one must places are out stock,
I got mine from rc4wd, pre-order took 3 months😬
You got some cool toys I love them
Thanks bud! It's the joy of the hobby😁😁

Yes sir the overland is like 800 plus 300 in shipping, and the tonnage was 21 from amain plus only 17.99 to ship!! Rc4wd wanted 500 to ship!!?? Crazy!

@@gerrysoldguyreview Thanks very much for the detailed response
No problem, help is what I try to provide on my channel😁😁
That's a cool truck. You said that you don't like it in silver, I can see it done up in camo mat colors (would be cool jmo) .😎👍

Ty, do they still make wedico??
Whoa scale art is gorgeous but the price!!😆😆
Hey chief question for you. Would you recommend this truck or green military HG P801 8 by 8 drive Thanks
I would have to say the HG! It's proven to be tougher and more reliable!
@@gerrysoldguyreview thanks 🙏
No problem!
What brand of light kit can be used on this truck?
Iam still trying to figure a good one. I has a ton of light buckets!
What sound system did you buy and where did you get it?
Chuck, I put in the rc4wd semi sound kit. It's plug and play.
Cool
Thanks
Too bad that front bumper isn't metal. Are the bed walls metal or plastic?
Hello Anthony, yes the whole rear bed seams to be aluminum even the mounts that hold it down!
Where did you order it from?
It comes from rc4wd
That thing looks amazing man. Really love it. I just ordered the 4x4 one a few days ago. Is the transmission actually plastic? It states cast on the site? Really hoping not

@@gerrysoldguyreview awesome! That makes me happy then. And just watched it. Looks awsome man. Keep up the great videos. Already subscribed!
