Hello Perry,

I have had a Pershing , Pz3 and 4. The Pz3 has lots of upgrades available and is an excellent runner. I found the Pz4 was harder to upgrade the gear boxes but it too is a good runner.

The KV-1 IMO is on sale now and it is super sturdy and dependable. Lots of room and will climb telephone poles. THere is no proof of this but rumors do exist. lol

I see you chose the Pz4. No worries lots of help here no matter what you choose.

Best of luck and post your tank pics. We would love to see them.

THe metal bearing supports available for all tanks is worth considering. They really make a difference.

Be well,

David
