MODEL 82096-4: TRX-4 Scale and Trail Crawler with Mercedes-Benz G 500 4x4² Body

In 2015, Mercedes-Benz released the limited-production G 500 4x4² to stake its claim as the ultimate off-road vehicle. Outfitted with a powerful V8 engine, dynamic 4WD system, and military-grade portal axles, the G 500 4x4² had no equal. Traxxas honors the engineering masterpiece that is the G-Class with this highly-detailed RC replica. Based on the class-leading TRX-4®, the Traxxas Mercedes-Benz G 500 4x4² features portal axles, a high/low transmission, and locking differentials for superior all-terrain capability. The highly detailed body with unique wheels and tires makes this truck a fitting tribute to the legendary original.

Yes, it's not the usual desert or huge jump farm footage Traxxas usually has.

I'm looking at a TRX-4 now, and I see that this one is SIGNIFICANTLY less expensive than the Ford and Chevy versions. I wonder why they are so proud?

Maybe Mercedes knew it would be like free advertising for them, instead of trying to capitalize on every little thing. I'll probably get the Mercedes, even though I like the Ford body better.

How are these things holding up, with all the complexity? If they're as good as my Summit has been, they should be pretty solid.

Im sure you've made a decision already. But I just got mine a couple weeks ago. I sold my Summit and got the TRX-4. The Traxxas Summit started to have issues (I bought it used). So I got the G500. I'm a fan of Mercedes. Overall, I have to say that this is one heck of a crawler! Not disappointed yet!
