Before you guys get really worked up, I have one of these 1/6th scale  
jeeps, and they are huge.  They look good and GI Joe guys fit in them  
well.  Now for the down side...the axles are weak, for driving around  
on pavement they are fine, and some rock crawling, but they use a  
small o-ring as a drive belt in each axle and it's prone to stretch.   
Also the gears they do use are prone to stripping.  Once that is taken  
care off, you need to replace the electronics since they are less than  
ideal.  I picked one up at Wal-Mart a few years ago for $50 US after  
Christmas and it was a decent deal, but they either too slow (low  
gear) or too fast (high gear) for running around a field without a lot  
of work.  I plan on redoing mine but be warned, they are far from  
perfect.
