Things To Consider When Buying an RC Off-Road Truck.
When looking for a truck to take off-roading you want to generally look for trucks that are waterproof. You will want one that can handle any element, whether rain, snow…etc.
Off-roading tires are going to be a necessity for wanting a truck that can handle the toughest off-roading activities. Off-roading tires offer great gripping strength, the ability to tackle steep grades, and they can tackle uneven and slippery surfaces.
High ground clearance is also something that many off-roading trucks have. High ground clearance lets drivers approach steep angles and grades easier.
