Pricey's Tuff Truck is a class created by the man himself, Steve Price of Pricey's Custom Crawlers (see / priceys-custom-crawler... )
The Capra and Gatekeeper are the out-of-the-box rigs that fit right in to this class. But there's so much room to imagine and create, it's great! I've been busy with Mini and Scale-1 of late, so this year I've kinda mashed together my Capra and an Injora Rock Buggy chassis/body, which is cheap, light and easy to work with.
How'd it turn out? So glad you asked! Let me show you!

Important update: this is a Gmade R1 clone. I somehow missed this when making the video. Sorry for the oversight and apologies to gmade for featuring your design without attribution. I'll try hard not to let this happen again.

Update: I created this video in the last few days before I left for ECCF. It's still a couple of days before I leave as I write this and I've been testing several different tire and foam combos - just didn't have time to do this until now!
In the video here, you can see how similar the two sets of tires perform. I actually do prefer my TPU inserts over the foams and the new treads are even better now I've run a few packs through them.
I'm going to compete using my 1.9 Mr Lines V2 for 5.4 Pro-Lines, I've decided. I'm about as happy as I'll get with the rig in its current form. It still isn't quite right, but it's pretty good. You can bet I'll be watching the other rigs closely at the comp to try to learn a bit more about what makes a good TT rig!

Download my TPU inserts here: (link coming soon)
Print instructions are on that page too. I've used generic TPU, so can't tell you it's shore rating, but softer is generally going to be better.
