Naw. I'm thinking 1512/2.5d on 5s. The MMM is good for 6s, but I like a little wiggle room voltage-wise. I don't plan on gearing crazy; 35mph, 40mph tops. Any higher than that isn't as fun off road. This thing is really light and I don't plan to add much weight so I would be surprised if it topped 9-10lbs fully loaded.

I made some prototype body mounts and bumper mounts. Things look pretty easy, except for the rear bumper - I still have to figure something out there. I plan to pick up some parts and materials tomorrow night after work, but won't get much headway until the weekend I think. With the suspension travel this thing has, I have to sit the body REALLY high, it looks cool though - like a real CORR truck...
