Default Re: So what was everyone's first truck?

My first RC "Big Rig" was a Wedico Freightliner COE and container trailer.
I purchased it from a dealer in Jolly ole England.
I assembled it but had no way to charge the battery. Hobby shops just laughed at me when I took the battery pack and asked for help. So it sat on a shelf until my first move. Then it got packed up and stayed that way for about 15 years. One day about 6 years ago while rearranging my basement. I came across the box. I decided to google Wedico and I found PMD.
My first RC truck was Tamiya Hilux. I still have an 80's Tamiya Ford Ranger with 2 bodies and a Wild Willy. I tried RC helecopters back in the 80's as well. Decided keeping things on the ground was cheaper that letting them find the ground at high rate of speed.
