You really shouldn't charge it with the batteries in the truck..

If the batteries get too hot it will ruin the truck itself.

Why didn't you use the battery hold downs from the twin motor kit?

And, that thing looks to clean.. take it out and get it dirty. ;) You'll love it, they are a blast.

Get That Baby All Dirty Already! You got a better steal + deal on your "Mega-Pro" than me. I cost me 78 with a few upgrades + a coupon. xD

yea, thats why i never bought one till now, when everything just went to like 50 buck, i knew they werent worth the cash back then, but since it was extremly cheap i said wth and picked it up.

They look ok but I couldn't see myself buying another one. Just too crappy for me. Not good enough quality...then again I could go out and buy one just to bash around but the batteries take wayy too long and I got mine 2 years ago...remember what me and xmodificationer said? Worst $140(at the time the trucks/buggies were $100 and the battery and the charger together was like $40)that either of us spent.

There's no way I would have spent that much on this thing, but for $50 it's a pretty good deal, considering I also got the battery and charger for $5. Plus another $23 for all my spare parts and mods, I'm very pleased.

Total of $78 invested and tons more fun than an Xmod, hell yeah. I've got more money into my little X-truck and it can't do anything the PP can.

Only downside now, is getting a better battery and charger.. then I can have fun for longer periods of time. :cool:

Are the upgrade tire Pro-Line? They look like Dirt Hawgs IMO. I want one of those things, they have goods and bads, but for $50, you can't really dispute either. I don't quite like the lexan body it comes with...it's 1:18 I think? Something from ascosciated would look better, but thats a great deal you have there, cool.

yeaa for the price ya cant really deal, if the stuff wasnt on sale it would be worth like $180, not worth it, but with this and all i had to do was pay 6 bucks for the dirt tires, hell it was worth it, but i really wish the had better looking bodies. and yea i got the battery and charger, the twin motor ribbed tires and shocks, for free! it was well worth it.
