I have been involved with the RC hobby since I was a young boy (over 35yrs), so I have seen a lot of changes through the years, and have learned a lot about land vehicles, planes, helicopters and quad copters/drones. For the price of this truck, I have not ever seen or used an RC vehicle that was this fun, and of decent quality. These days, it's easy to spend over $100 and end up with crap ( which i have done a couple times). This Haiboxing model 18859 truck is great. I got this for my 5yr old son who has crashed, smashed, and bashed it at high speeds many times, and nothing has broken on it yet. This truck is very fast in normal speed mode, and truly is good quality. Being that it is 4 wheel drive, it burns through our yard on grass with ease, faster and more easily than other trucks my son has that are 3 times its size. The cons....the li-po batteries that came with this do still work, but the charger that came with this does not balance the cells well, so they have started to lose their run time. So the charger is not very good, I use my own balance charger, and I will be buying replacement batteries of a little bit better quality. The shocks that came stock worked fine at first, but after a few months of use they broke down and started to bind up. I was able to find upgraded replacement shocks which are better quality, but they were $20 for the set of 4. So the price of that is steep considering the whole truck and remote with 2 batteries was under $120. The motor in the truck I got (about a year ago in Jan 2022) was not brushless, however it works very well and has plenty of torque. I would have preferred brushless, but that wasn't an option with this model at the time, and honestly this truck does just fine with the brushed motor. It looks like now the newer version comes with brushless. Overall I really can't complain with the two cons I have listed. The amount of use and abuse this has taken at my home has absolutely qualified this truck as a great value, especially for someone like me that wanted this for my son who is new to the hobby. I wanted something cheaper ( as opposed to some rc trucks that are $400-$800), but not junk. And that's exactly what I got with this, it is a great truck for what I paid and I definately recommend it for someone starting out, or who just wants something better than the average big box store rc truck ( like WalMart). My relatives have spent $80+ for trucks that are absolute garbage compared to this Haiboxing model, and my sons truck would drag these across t

Whole family is loving the car. I wanted something that was good for beginners, but powerful enough to cut through grass and gravel. This truck is fast on the roads, but it just becomes a blast when you can take it to a field or park or woods and just race around the dirt rocks and leaves. I had the Hosim version of this, but a car ran that one over 3 days after Christmas. When I went to replace it, found this Laegendary one on a Deal of the Day. Glad I stepped up to this one, because I can definitely tell some difference with the shocks, but I love the dual battery option and the lights have added a whole other layer of fun. I can't speak to how long it's going to last, but we've already put at least 8 driving hours on this, and it's still running perfectly. Even if this only lasted 6 months, it would still be worth it for the entertainment. Buy Extra batteries and chargers for sure.
