While the E-Revo may work well as a basher, it's not a crawler, nor trail truck. Adding in a low gear and locking diffs and trying to pass it off as such is just ridiculous. In this particular case, Traxxas really should have designed at least a mostly new vehicle to fit the intended purpose.

From the ad they had on the back of the special edition RCCA crawling mag, one would have expected at least some semblance of a crawler instead of this thing.
