After having fun with both my E-Revo VXL and the 2WD Stampede, I found there is a Traxxas car which has good things of both those cars; The 4×4 Stampede.
I bought a new roller because I was going to use the ESC/motor combo from my 2WD. After getting and extra set of wheels with the 2WD front offset (which the 4×4 has on all corners) and moving the electronics and body over from the 2WD, it felt like I found my favourite car.
