Big toy cars are something that everyone is looking for. The ones that get overlooked are remote-controlled cars. Something that is dependable and tough.
A good car that fits this description is a Traxxas Rustler. It’s a 1/10 scale which means it’s about the size of two adult male feet. You can get a high-quality car at any hobby store these days. Why should you get it at a hobby store and spend the extra money? Because you want one that actually works and can run over just about anything.
This car is meant to go fast and jump high so it will run through your front and back yard with no problem. Be careful because it will tear up your grass with all of the power it has. Twelve-year-old boys will love it because it charges within about an hour and it will run for just as long.
This Rustler is one of the most fascinating big toy cars because it can also run on concrete. When it’s on concrete it can pop wheelies because it’s so fast. As an additional piece of equipment, you can purchase a wheelie bar.
It comes already assembled with everything you need right out of the box except a battery. Once you add the battery it’s ready to go. Traxxas makes cars that anyone can learn to operate quickly. A Rustler was the first car I purchased as an adult, I’ve been buying it ever since.
After the Rustler the next natural step is a short course truck like the Traxxas Slash.
