    Looking really nice. Is that compartment where you have your receiver and ESC standard? I didn't know there was a pocket in there. It looks like good water and dirt protection.

    No the tray and lid was purchased from Flying Dutchman mrp but they fit right in and hid the electronics real nice and should keep them pretty protected from the elements

    Nice. I was wondering why I've never seen that before. You build is coming along nicely.

    Very nice. Head and tail lights too. How does it drive? What is that red "hat" under the hood?

    Those sound like minor adjustments and a successful first run, congratulations! Did you make any video? So what's next for this truck?

    Now I can really see the battery and it's easy to tell it's a battery. It's like one of those new kind of car batteries. It's really looking nice and with a lot of scale touches.
    I think Vanquish Products makes a nice LED light bar. It is also available in different widths. They also have a special bracket that looks like it's welded to go with it.
