    Thank you Sir! It obviously, wasn't exactly uploaded, when I initially intended it to be,😂 lol I got a little sidetracked in the days following Christmas, mainly from RC gifts to, and from others,and the Additional RC labor that was required by myself, too install said upgrades,🤔🙂 lol along with another Unboxing video,and a "Top Secret Gen 8 Project" 🤐 that I've been working on and filming at the same time, Which is a Christmas present upgrade for my Neice,😊 A Really,Really, Really,Awesome upgrade! 🤔🤯 It's not even the same truck anymore! It will probably be one of the most capable vehicles, in the Entire RC After Dark R/C Arsenal 😊 lol Lucky kid! Too continue the original story; in the middle of all those new items & upgrades,I suffered a serious issue with the internal memory on my cellphone,"which is what I use for everything channel,and video related" I have a 256Gb SD card,so my cellphone camera saves everything to that, But everything related too video editing,gets stored on my cellphone's internal memory,Which is 16Gb, and the phone uses around 12Gb for operating systems,🙄 Moral of the story, The cellphone got so clogged up with editing memory, That I wasn't able too download my finished video from my editing program back to my phone,And no matter how much stuff I transferred too the SD card,or deleted all together,I still couldn't scavenge enough space too transfer my finished video,☹️😪😤🤬😡😠 And then the Scottish temper got the best of me, and I sent my phone into the ground at a Extremely high rate of speed, "It may have broken the sound barrier",😂 Lol But it was definitely Broken! and bent like a banana,even the battery, Ha! ha! ha! Lol Luckily my SD card survived,🙄 Thank God! Anyways,I ended up with a small delay because of that little situation,😕 The cellphone was a LG Stylo 3, I now have a Motorola Moto Z4, it has a decent camera,and most importantly,it has 128Gb of internal memory,and along with my 256gb SD card,I should be okay for awhile,🤔🙂 maybe! hopefully! 😊 Thanks for your great comments,and for taking the time to check out the video Pascal,🙂👍👍 Sorry for the long winded story Brother,lol 🙂😎👊👊✌️

Well I see that I am not the only one having a problem with my phone, I just changed it too, but I must have a calmer temperament than the Scots because I do not throw them on the ground 😂😂 I just bought a new camera too , now I will have to learn to use it, this will prevent me from having reflections from certain youtubers that my videos are badly filmed 😕 It is true that it is annoying to have problems to make these videos, I also lagged behind, I bought a rc Mst Cfx at Christmas that I have never shown for lack of time 😊 I can't wait to see this trx6 at work and also your work on the Gen8 😊 Always a great pleasure for me to chat with you, good day my friend 😊

    You too! Darn cellphones! 😊 Lol And in all honesty,out of all the cellphones have had over the years,my LG was the only one that got slammed into the ground,😂 all the rest of my old cellphones,are stored safely in a box somewhere,lol 😊👍 The LG on the other hand, had the unfortunate issue of locking up with a video project,that I had over 150 hours of time wrapped up into it,😕 "Editing with the cellphone" so that was 150 hours while wearing my 70+ year old Dad's reading glasses,😕🤔 So I may have been a little "extra angry" when it let me down,😂 lol Lessons learned the hard way I suppose,especially after cleaning up all the little glass shards from off of the ground,and then the extended down time,and hassle of hooking up my new phone,with out the ability of even being able to turn on my old phone,☹️ big pain in the rear end! Lessons learned 😊 The 150 hour video project,is another side project,that spawned from the Gen 8 Project video,😕 Upon reviewing the Gen 8 project videos,"12 in total" All filmed over the course of 18hrs,or all in the same day, Well upon reviewing I had discovered over 57 Orbs flying in,out,and around the camera,and the Gen 8,and myself, during and through the entire video,"in my house" "and in my garage" no windows or heat in the garage,😕 And the house is being heated with a wood stove,so no furnace blowing air around,🤔 It's pretty insane! Especially after you slow down,and pause the video, and get a good look at what you are seeing, 🤯 Mind Blown! I tell you what, "Multiple Orbs" they come from nowhere,and disappear just as fast, like they are moving in & out of our dimension,🤔 they emit there own light source,and yet are somewhat translucent, They appear to be a blue'ish,white'ish color, almost like a storm cloud color, They were flying in, and out of the Gen 8's receiver,with the no power going to the receiver, As well as flying in,and out of a small stack of lipo batteries that were sitting on the table,Multiple Orbs flying through,and around at the same time,😕 Upon zooming in:they look like human faces,alien faces,human Skulls, human Skulls with bullet holes and fragmented damage,Demonic looking figures,that appear to be dancing,full human faces with red lipstick,violet eye shadow,and blond hair, faces that look like George Washington,another that looks like a monkey with a Old NASA rocket on it's shoulder,😕 at one point, there was three orbs sitting on the frame of the Gen 8, and upon zooming in,and watching them in slow motion,I watched them change shape & form,through over 250 different faces & figures,complex shapes, even some Roman numerals,All in a matter of a minute,🤔 insane! I've been around for 46 years,I've seen all kinds of things with my own eyes,and on television over those years,And Pascal I can honestly say that I've never seen anything like this,I've seen Orbs on ghost hunting tv show's,But nothing as strong as the footage that I currently have, Absolutely nothing like this in quantity,quality,and shere volume,of Orbs caught on camera,🤯 I didn't necessarily want to say anything about it,but That is the 150 hr video project,that I was working on, I put everything else on hold,when I discovered the Orbs on my Gen 8project video,😕 And focused all my efforts,into making a separate video,of just the "Orbs" as they flew through,🤔 I had it down to 27 minutes of none stop orb action,with full speed,and slow motion flybys,Along with over 356 still immages of the Orbs, as they were flying through,and around the Gen 8, My cellphone memory hit it's Max when I was doing my voiceover on the video,I was able too clear enough memory to get it all finished,But not enough memory to transfer the video back to my phone,😭 So technically speaking,it wasn't exactly a standard RC video project,And may help to explain,why I was extra Angry,when I destroyed my cellphone,🤔🙂 lol Otherwise,and on a side note,Ever since myself,and family have seen these orbs on my video,We have been seeing them around our house,and in our garage,no matter if it's day,or night,😕 I can tell you what they are not; They are not bugs They are not specs of dust They are not static discharge And they are not a figment of imagination,🤔 Anyways,during the phone issue I lost my edited video of the Orbs, "Hence my extreme hostility towards my phone"😕 I have all of the original "12" Gen 8 project videos, But I have to go back,and re'start the orb video project from the ground up,🙄 As for the video footage itself; "It is Totally Real" And I'm also kinda looking for a tv show to pick it up, Like Ancient Aliens on the history channel,I was personally talking to "Nick Pope" "former British Ministry of Defense" about the video footage, and sent him a small two minute sample video of the Orbs, He was definitely intrigued,and gave me the contact information for "Prometheus Entertainment" who does The show Ancient Aliens, But I haven't attempted contacting them as of yet, Was thinking,that it could possibly be more lucrative,$$$ as a KZread Grand Slam! vs giving it to a TV show,🤔 Although a TV show like Ancient Aliens, Would definitely have the video editing equipment to do my video footage,True Justice!,vs my cellphone editing program,🤔 It's some seriously,mind blowing video footage,to say the least! I may just chop it down,to like 10 minutes,of the Best,of the Best Orbs,and post that instead of the full length version featuring every orb caught on camera,🤔 But that is the entire story Brother,all of the true facts behind my cellphone's destruction, And due to the true contant of the story,You can probably see why I didn't mention it to begin with,🙂 Didn't necessarily want you thinking that I was Nuts,Before hearing about, All of the insane video footage,that I currently have too prove otherwise,🤔🙂😂 like I said it's pretty wild,And as a cautionary note; The video footage is also,Very life Altering,And could potentially cause some weaker minded people,to have a nervous breakdown,🤔 or possibly inforce their religious beliefs,if they believe in the place called "Purgatory" which supposedly is a place for soul's between our world and the next,or possibly another Dimension within our own,🤔 I personally, never really got into such things,or ideas like that,But after studying the video footage,It certainly seems very likely!🤔 Alrighty,I suppose I've probably said too much,lol I won't say anything else about it until you see the finished video Brother,ha ha ha lol 🙂😂😎✌️

    Haa! ha! ha!,😂 Lol I'm sorry Brother ☹️😊 Don't feel too bad,😕 The Trx6 is indeed a great vehicle,but there's no way too put tracks on it, Absolutely no room between the back axles for the track units,🤔 Which is too bad! So it's stuck as a dedicated 6x6 running tires only,😕 impossible to run a track tire combo, from the difference in gearing,between the track units,and the tires,☹️ And as a "6×6", it has it's own advantages with the extra rear axle,But at the same time,that extra rear axle can also be a disadvantage in certain areas,🤔 Don't get me wrong,it is a Sweet Rig, but it's more of a nitch market item,than anything else,🤔 And if it makes you feel better,I dragged the 6x6 up a snowy hill,after it had gotten stuck,With my tracked Bronco 😂 Bronco Power! 😊👍👍 So no real worries about having a 6x6 my friend, The trx4's are much more Versatile! 🙂👍👍 Thanks for your great comments,and for taking the time to check out the video my friend.😎👍👍✌️

    No problem J.D. 🙂👍 The actual tire Diameter was a huge deal for me as well,I knew that Traxxas was up to some Shenanigans with those little guys,just didn't realize how bad until it was sitting in front of me, Essentially,they are the same size as a standard 1.9 tire,and much smaller, than a standard 2.2 tire 🤔 I kinda felt like it was a very important part too point out,🤔 I can't imagine all the people,who may have ordered another set of after market 2.2 tires, along with their new Trx6, Only to find out that the new tires will never fit! 😤🤬☹️😪 Total Bummer! Otherwise my only dislikes are the 6x6's low bumper's,and the fact that Traxxas is still using that "Piece of Junk" 2075x steering servo,🙄 Otherwise I Totally Dig the Trx6,and I believe that Traxxas did an outstanding job with the rest of the vehicles fit & finish,🙂👍👍 Thanks for your Awesome comment,and for taking the time to check out the video my friend.😎👊👊

I personally haven't driven it yet,😂 But my Brother, and Neice,sure seem to like it,😃 the only time I've been close to the 6x6,was filming this video,and dragging it up a snowy hill with my Tracked Bronco, after the 6x6 got stuck, 😂🤫🤐 lol 🙈🙉🙊 But otherwise it seems like a good Vehicle,other than the bumper's hanging a little low for my taste,🤔 And the stock 2.2 tires are a joke,the 1.9 canyon trails,are the same outer diameter as those 2.2's,😕 And the tire compound & tread pattern Stink! I don't know what Traxxas was thinking with that move! 🙄 Other than B.S.'ing people with their so called 2.2 tires, If someone uneducated seen that,they may be inclined to order different 2.2 tires,and then be totally screwed,when they discover that the new tires won't fit the 6x6,😕 Anyways, I definitely like the truck itself,🙂👍 and she will get tons of usage that's for sure,😊 Thanks again for your great comments,and for taking the time to check out the video Brother.😎👍👍

    @@STEVOD313 Well Traxxas says that the Trx6 has 2.2 tires and wheels,And they are 2.2's, Just extremely small 2.2's, And at 4.65 inches of outer diameter, The 2.2's are essentially the same physical size,"in outer diameter" as the 1.9 Canyon trails,🤔 exact same! Which is my gripe! Because I'm sure that some people will be ordering some Aftermarket 2.2's along with their Trx6,and those people are going to be in trouble,when they find out that the Aftermarket tires won't fit,😕 because Traxxas decided to use small 2.2's, vs the normal 1.9 Canyon trails,🤔 I'm guessing that a good 10 to 15% of people ordering the 6×6, have probably already made that mistake,🤔 maybe! Anyways; I kinda felt like it was B.S. on Traxxas's part! Kinda pulling the wool over everyone's eyes! At least Axial includes 1.9's with their 6×6, and they may even be a little larger than the Trx6's 2.2's,😕 And another bad thing about the low profile 2.2's,are that they have less tire sidewall flex vs the 1.9's,I mean it's a off-road vehicle,not an Escalade rolling on 22's with spinners,😂 lol I don't know what Traxxas's was thinking lol

    Very Awesome Brother! Can't beat those Valentine's gifts,🙂👍 And the White Trx6 too! That one is only available on Traxxas's website! 🤯 Very awesome indeed! 🙂 As for the servos;Yes the stock 2075x servo is kinda worthless,usually it will only last a few days,or more depending on usage, before it quits,☹️ First and foremost,I would recommend getting the Traxxas "Complete BEC kit" for both trucks,And I would install them first before driving the vehicles,The BEC kit ups the voltage to the steering servo,and could greatly stretch the life span,of the stock 2075x servo,🤔 By giving it the voltage that it requires vs less than what is required in stock form,🤔 which could also be part of the reason that the servo quits working early in life,😕 As for a different servo all together;Well number one; I fully recommend the BEC kit either way,🤔 As for servos; I would fully recommend the Protek 370 tbl,or a Reefs servo, or a Savox sw1210,or even the Red Traxxas 400 inch ounce $99.00 dollar servo,But the Protek servo would be my first choice, But the Red Traxxas servo, would also have more than enough power to get the job done,🙂👍 Thanks for your great comments,questions,and for taking the time to check out the video Brother.😎👊👊✌️ P.S. love Colorado,I rode through Rado on my way to Sturgis in 2014,on a 06 Harley Electra glide,Even through the Rocky mountain national park,🙂 went all the way across Colorado,and into Utah,😃 lol

    just got my trx6 about 3 weeks ago and i freakin love it! already upgraded the servo and got the HW Axe 550 with the 3300kv motor and this thing is a beast! i run her with no shock oil for more realism and works awesome on trails and moderate rock crawling. my next plan is probably change all the axles to metal but not sure yet.

    😁👍 Beastly for sure! As for metal axles, I suppose it all depends on what your end goal is for the truck,🤔 gotta remember, that metal Doesn't slide over Rock's as easily as Plastic does,😕 And too much weight on a vehicle can quickly become counter productive,🤔 it takes a lot more to sling the extra weight around, And that extra weight Amplify's if you happen to roll the truck, meaning that it Hits harder on the ground,😬🥺 Ultimately though it all depends on your end goal for the 6x6, if you want it to be a Beafy Beastly Tow Rig, then all metal is good, But if you want it to be a awesome Crawler then keeping it light weight, with plastic axle housing's, and extra weight in key areas is the way to go, But if you are looking for a little bit of both, then it's a matter of a fine balance between the two,🤔 The heavier it is, the easier it will get stuck, and that's with everything, Snow,Mud,Sand,or climbing steep obstacles,🤔 all areas that light weight pays off,😕 The only vehicle that I own that is full metal, is my Tf2, and for all the ground clearance, and suspension flex that it has in abundance, it still can't crawl as well as my Vaterra K10 Ascender, which is almost stock other than tires,😕 and my tf2 is worth more than my 2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ, "Real full size vehicle" so that should tell you something, my tf2 is totally sick! But it also weighs more than 9 lbs, which translates to a ton of weight to be slinging over the rocks,🤔 my K10 Ascender is the exact same wheelbase as the tf2, except it's extremely light weight by comparison, and it will out climb my tf2 all day long,😕 Ascender is mainly all plastic, tf2 is all metal, Ascender is worth about $300.00 dollars,My tf2 is worth well over $3,000.00 dollars,😕🤔 And the Ascender kill's it off-road,😕 just something to think about Brother 🙂👍 All metal, and heavly weighted, isn't always the best option,🤔😁👍👍 Just words of wisdom, in the end, it's your vehicle, and you can do whatever you want with it,😁👍👍 So far though it sounds pretty cool Brother.😎👍 Thanks for your Awesome comment, and many more thanks for checking out the video my friend.🙂😎👊👊👍👍

    Depending on the 1.9's outer diameter, Yes But the 2.2's are definitely too big, I just tried the 2.2 mud slingers on the 6×6, and it's pretty close in the back, less than 1/4" gap between the rear tires,🙄 which means that when the vehicle is driving off-road, the tires are most likely going to hit each other,😕 1.9 Mud slingers would probably be ok.🤔 We are currently running Proline 1.9 XL super swampers on this 6×6, and they seem to clear just fine. So I'm thinking that you would be ok with the 1.9 mud slingers.😄👍 Thanks for your great question Antonio, and a few more thanks for checking out the video my friend. 😁👍🙏

    Might want to check out the Rc4wd 1.9 Mud slinger 2XL It's larger than the standard 1.9, yet smaller than a standard 2.2, They have a outer diameter of 4.21" The Proline 1.9 XL super swamper tires, are a little bit bigger at around 4.75" outer diameter.🤔 Basically if you went with the mud slingers, you would essentially be putting smaller tires on your truck vs the stock tires,🙄 and that's not necessarily a good thing when going off-road,😕 the Proline 1.9xls on the other hand, are slightly larger in outer diameter then the stock 2.2's that come on the 6×6, but not so large as to rub on each other,🤔 "Bigger tires equal more ground clearance" Yeah... I'm thinking that you might want to check out the Proline tires 😕 or look for a 1.9 tire with a outer diameter no larger than 4.75" inches. Duratrax Deep Woods crawler tires, might be a better alternative. 😕

    Ahhh 🙄 I'm so sick of answering this question, Let's think about this shall we 🤔 the Tires Are Not 1.9's, If they were 1.9's then the inner diameter would be 1.9, 🤷 1.9 means, One point 9 inches,🤔 which is the Outer diameter, of the wheel, that they are meant to fit onto,😕 Not the outer diameter of the Tire itself, Get it ? Now the tires that come with the Trx6, Are the same Outer diameter, as the 1.9 Traxxas Canyon Trails, Which is like 4.65 inches, or something like that,🙄 But the inner diameter of the Trx6 Tires is 2.2, which is, Two point two inches, meaning, that they are meant to fit onto, a Two point two inch wheel,😕 The "Term" 1.9 or 2.2, Has nothing to do, with the tires Overall Outer Diameter,🤔 Many 1.9's, and 2.2's, Have a "Different" Overall, Outer Diameter,😕 They All vary in Size! 😕 So to make it Completely Clear, 1.9, and 2.2, Are Referring to the Wheel Size, and Not, the Outer Diameter, of The Tire Itself, Which in this situation, is right around 4.65 inches, which is a Far Cry, From 1.9,or 2.2 inches, Is it Not? 🤷 Now, Do we All Understand, "Class"? 👩‍🎓👍 I've got a Set of Rc4wd 1.55 Mickey Thomson Baja Claws, that are the same Outer Diameter as the 1.9 Canyon Trails, 😕 But That Doesn't Mean, that they are 1.9's 🤨😕 Because they are meant to fit onto a 1.55 inch wheel, and Not a 1.9 inch wheel, the Fact that they have the same Outer Diameter, Doesn't Mean a Darn Thing,😕 Understand ? Like the "Proline" 2.2 Sand Paw tires for instance, They have a 2.2 inch inner diameter, so they are meant for a 2.2 inch wheel, but the Outer Diameter, is Actually, Slightly smaller, then the "Traxxas" 1.9 Canyon Trails, But that doesn't mean that they Should be Called 1.9's, 😕🤷 A 1.9 inch wheel, Would be like a Hotdog in a Hallway, if you put it inside the Proline 2.2 Sand Paw's, 😕 One inch, 1.55 inch, 1.7 inch, 1.9 inch, 2.2 inch, 2.8 inch, and so on, Are All Referring to the Wheel Diameter, that the Tires, are Supposed to be mounted upon,😕 And Have Absolutely Nothing To do, with the Tires, "Overall" Outer Diameter, Period ! End of Story! 😕🤷 When People Say that they have 1.9's, or 2.2's, It's Just a Generalization! A Term Of Reference! But it Speaks Nothing, About The Tires, "Overall" Outer Diameter,😕 Which Can Vary by Quite a Lot,🤔 my Proline 2.2 Sand Paw's, are Insanely Small, in Comparison, to My Proline 2.2 Super Swampers, But They are Both Still Considered 2.2's, Why you Say ? Because They are Both, Meant to fit onto a 2.2 inch wheel,🤷 even though there's a few inches of difference, between there "Overall" Outer Diameter's,😕 So! Once Again! 1.9, and 2.2, Are Referring to the tires "inner" tire Diameter, and the Size of the Wheels, that they are Meant to be Mounted upon, And Have Absolutely Nothing! To Do, With The Tires "Overall" Outer Diameter.🤔😕 End of Story.😉👍 Amain Hobbies, is a great Website for shopping for Tires, They Generally show you the tires outer diameter's, which once again, all vary, No matter what wheel size, they are meant to be mounted on, Same thing with looking at Vehicle spec's, Amain Hobbies, is Awesome for giving you all the Spec's, Like on the Trx6 for instance,🤔 Not only do they show you that the Trx6's wheels are 2.2 inch, But they Also show you, the Tires Overall Outer Diameter,😉👍 I'll even leave a link to the Trx6 on Amain's site, and you can scroll down, and look at the Spec's for yourself,😕 www.amainhobbies.com/traxxas-trx6-1-10-6x6-trail-crawler-truck-w-mercedesbenz-g-63-amg-body-black-tra88096-4-blk/p1011121 Click on the link, click on the truck, and then scroll down, until you see the Vehicle's Spec's, it's all Right There! Wheel Diameter, and Overall Tire Outer Diameter 😉👍 And now that I have Spent a Hour plus, typing this all out, I'm going to leave it at that. 😊👍 And Hopefully, everyone who reads this, will finally Understand The Differences between A tires Wheel size, vs a tires Overall Outer Diameter,👍 And the Only Reason that I made it a Point to talk about in the video, Was Just for people, that were thinking about purchasing a Trx6, It was a Heads up! Because when a lot of people buy a new vehicle, they sometimes, also purchase, another set of tires, and wheels, for that Vehicle at the same time, And if they are new to the Hobby, and notice that the vehicle is equipped with "advertised" 2.2 inch tires, They are most likely going to buy another set of aftermarket 2.2's for there new vehicle,😕 and if they where to do that with the Trx6, they would quickly find themselves Up 💩 Creek,🤔 Because there's no way in Hell, that a "normal" or "average" set of 2.2's, will fit on the Trx6, without some serious modification's to the Vehicle's body, and Rear Axle layout,😕 Because Once again, "2.2" References the Wheel Diameter, And Not! The Tires Overall Outer Diameter.😊👍 🙄 And there's another 30 minutes gone from my day, typing out the rest of this Lesson.🤷 Which I'm not complaining about,😕 I honestly love helping people out with there questions, But this is getting to be Pretty Redundant,🙄😕 Especially since, I've already said the same thing, in several other comments on this video,🙄 And why I made it a point to Explain it in the video itself,😕 I'm not saying this about you Mark, But sometimes I feel like I'm teaching a bunch of Special Ed class students,🤷 it's not Rocket Science Everyone! Wheel Diameter's, Have Absolutely Nothing To Do, With The Tires "Overall" Outer Diameter, PERIOD! Normally I would say, Thanks for your Awesome comment, but I'm not actually Thankful for it,😕 But I Can Honestly Say, Thank You for Checking out the video my friend.😊👍👍 And I Wish you, and your family, All the Best over the Christmas Holiday Mark. 😊😎👍👍🎄🎁🎁🎁

    @@R.C.A.D. to get the point across you could make the statement of 33s on 15 inch rims vs 20 inch rims with 33s that way most people can understand or at least that's how I thought it out

    Sure that would be fine with a Real "full size vehicle" But when you're talking about "RC's" you need to talk about what tires, and wheel sizes RC's use, They don't sell 33"inch tires,or 15-20" inch wheels for RC's, I said it the way I said it, so that anyone who was shopping for new tires, and wheels for their Traxxas Trx6 Wouldn't end up buying the wrong thing.🤷 But I totally understand what you're saying, The only problem is that it would add extra confusion to someone who was potentially new to the RC world.😕

    No! They are 2.2's, But they have the same Outer diameter,as the stock trx4 1.9 Canyon trails, "2.2" is the wheel size, Which is the inner diameter of the tire itself, And has absolutely nothing to do with the tires Outer diameter! Which if memory serves correct, is 4.64×1.89 inches,🤔 which is the same as the 1.9 Canyon trails Outer diameter,😕 The devils in the details! Which is something that is commonly missed,when people don't pay attention to what's being said in the video,🤔 Not to sound like a Jerk,😕 But maybe you should stick to video games! 😂 Thanks for checking out the video.👍👍

    Thanks Al 🙂👍 I'm not a big Mercedes fan,and think that the 6×6 would look much better with a different body, The question is What ? 🤔 Semi truck body's have been done,Unimog body's, have been done,So what do you slap on it ? A stretched Hummer 2 body ? A stretched Toyota Hilux ? A stretched Ford Raptor ? A stretched Cady Limo 😂 or possibly Rolls Royce Limo 😂 I don't know 😕lol But I will say that Traxxas did a great job on the Mercedes,it certainly is a nice body overall,🙂 Just the idea of a 6×6 Mercedes ripping down the trail with no regard, seems a little far fetched, I don't know to many Mercedes owners,that would be willing too abuse there vehicles off-road,😕 Most would bust out in tears over a dead bug on the windshield,😂 Rich people! Lol Anyways, Thanks for your great comments,and for taking the time to check out the video my friend, it's very much appreciated.😎👊👊✌️ Cheers Mate!

    Your not kidding Larry,😒 I put a "Custom Trim Job" on those things,and they seem to be much better,as well as being much more flexible!🤔 But they still Stink overall,😂lol Traxxas should have included 1.9 Canyon trails instead! Those things are insanely awesome,after trimming a new tread pattern into them,"Basic Tractor Chevron pattern" And they are also the same outer diameter as those p.o.s. 2.2 tires that they included,😕 Just doesn't make any sense too me, other than purely for Sales purposes,And How the vehicle looks Visually,as well as it's "numbers" i.e. spec's on paper,or vehicle description,🤔 Basically trying to make it look good on paper,😕 otherwise it makes absolutely no sense to me,🤔 Thanks for your Awesome comment,and for taking the time to check out the video my friend.🙂😎👍

    The reason why you keep saying the tires are smaller than the other 2.2’s is because they are NOT 2.2 tires.. at least according to traxxas website.. they are 2.2 wheels with 1.9 tires on them .. that is WHY they seem smaller than the other 2.2 tires you compared them traxxas.com/products/landing/trx6-g63/#features

    Lol 😂 Really! Ha ha ha, They are 2.2's! The wheels are 2.2's, and the inner diameter of the tires is 2.2, not 1.9,👍 so they are 2.2's, But they are the same outer diameter, as the 1.9 Traxxas Canyon Trails, 4.65 inches, But they are still 2.2's 🤨 "2.2" referees to the tires inner diameter, Which is the wheel size, and has absolutely nothing to do with the tires outer diameter,😂👍 If you try to put these 2.2's tires, on a set of 1.9 wheels, it's not going to work, Hotdog in a Hallway! Get it! So what does that mean you say, Well simply put, it means that they aren't 1.9's,😂 lol they are just a set of 2.2's, with a very small outer diameter,😕 Perhaps you should go back, and re'read, what you had previously read,👍 I know what the Trx6's specs are, I have one sitting in front of me, and I'm not an idiot either, I know exactly what the tire, and wheel size is,🤨 But you seem to be a little confused about it,😕 So sorry to break your heart, but you are wrong my friend,👍 And worse yet, you are making everyone else who happens to read your comment, a little dumber in the process,😕 which is very counter productive,🙄 Double check, Triple check, and Quadruple check your facts, before leaving such ridiculous comments,😂👍 Omg 😂😂😂😂 lmao
