Topic: Tamiya Coming Out with F-250 Superlift - Like the Bruiser

[benmlee]

I was at the RCX hobby convention. Tamiya had on display a F-250 Superlift pickup. Has lifted leaf spring suspension, solid axel and 3 speed transmission. Nice looking scale body too in typical Tamiya fasion. I am definitely buying that one when it comes out latter this year. No need to pay over a grand for a Bruiser. The only real difference is the tires on the Ford is smaller than the Bruiser. Tires are more on the order of the Toyota Hilux tires. I am sure aftermarket parts can solve that.

I WANT ONE! If they make a Yota body of course, in the 89-95 truck flavor please.

I figure by the end of the year for sure, My guess is in the $500-600 range at first then probably settle in the high $400's. I base this on the same theory I base my life on, absolutely nothing.
