Need your opinions please, I'm after truck mainly for myself but the kids as well ( 2 young girls) something which looks retro and classic. Mainly used for the beach, parks, small jumps etc.
With my budget in mind and looks I've narrowed it down 3 trucks.
-Tamiya Blackfoot 2016 ( classic, plastic, upgradable, reliability?)
-Traxxas Bigfoot 1 ( classic look, lexan,looks stronger)
-Kyosho Mad van ( 4x4, fun,lexan, fast, upgradable?)
I like the look of the black and big foot and originally chose the Blackfoot but now reading reviews I'm not sure it would be up for the bashing it could potentially take . Same with the Bigfoot. The Mad van seems bomb proof and fun but looks more toyish and plastic. I don't mind spending time upgrading and fixings parts it's all part of the fun, but not if it's constantly after every other run. My heart says Blackfoot purely on looks and nostalgia but head says Kyosho.
Whats everyone's opinions could the Blackfoot and Bigfoot cope with the bashing without things constantly breaking. Thanks.
