Rustler 2WD HD RTR (battery/ USB-C charger included)

Drop the hammer and watch the dirt fly with the stadium truck that defined a generation of fast, low-slung backyard bashing.

If you want the perfect balance between the high-flying antics of a monster truck and the razor-sharp handling of a buggy, the Traxxas Rustler 2WD is your weapon of choice. Its wide track stance and low center of gravity allow it to carve through sweeping corners and execute massive, high-speed power slides without constantly rolling over. Whether you are prepping a backyard dirt track or just doing speed runs up and down the cul-de-sac, the Rustler delivers an aggressive, tail-happy driving experience that never gets old.

This newest evolution of the Rustler (37254-8) takes durability to the next level. Traxxas has outfitted this chassis with their Extreme Heavy Duty (EHD) driveline and suspension parts right out of the box, reinforcing the caster blocks, steering blocks, and axle carriers. Add in the ultra-convenient clipless body system, a potent 8.4V NiMH battery, and a 4-amp USB-C fast charger, and you have an absolute powerhouse of an RTR package that is ready to dominate the dirt the minute you open the box.

Why You'll Love It

• Factory-Installed EHD Upgrades: The Extreme Heavy Duty suspension components reinforce the truck's most critical stress points, allowing you to survive cartwheels and rough landings that would snap standard parts.
• Sleek Clipless Body: The aerodynamic stadium truck body now features a rugged internal cage and a hidden latching system. It holds tight during high-speed tumbles but releases in seconds for lightning-fast battery swaps.
• Alias 2.8" Racing Tires: Factory-glued to mirror-chrome wheels, the unique ribbed front tires slice through loose dirt for precise steering, while the stepped-pin rear tires deliver massive forward bite and gorgeous roosts.
• Waterproof Electronics: The XL-5 ESC and high-torque steering servo are completely sealed. Puddles, mud, and snow won't short out your fun.

Pro-Tip: The Titan 12T is a powerful brushed motor, but it needs a little TLC to live a long life! Before you go full throttle on your first run, elevate the rear wheels and let the truck run at low, steady RPMs for a few minutes. This properly seats the internal brushes to the commutator, giving you significantly more speed and motor longevity!
