Well I just got my sons Avalanche today. I am very impressed so far with build quality. It looks to be built extremly well. The Huge tires kinda look odd but my son saw pics and he really likes it. Its not near as big as my nephewes Monster Gt. Its actually a very small 1/8 scale truck compaired to the MGT and even my st1. Over all I think so far its a great looking truck. Cant wait to get it broke in and tuned. My son has not seen it yet but he is going to freak when he does. Good Job on this one redcat! NOTHING like the Tsunami thats for sure.
