I'm buying an F150 for sure.

Edit: Pics are courtesy T2Fast4U from xmodrc. A bunch of people called bs on him when he made a thread about a vid released to RS stores, and they are now eating their feet.

I will give RS some money for the F-150 and if i dont like it i'll say its broke, I really want one of these for myself to test it out and have a first hand oppinion about it. I hope they are better cuz just hering about a lift kit, off road kit, and f-150 got me drooling :greenblob: :greenblob: All hail the great, yet crappy RS :bowdown: :bowdown:

It looks like the Hummer comes with the off road kit. Seems like that's probably gonna be the cost effective way to go.... but check it out the F-150 actually has a bed. I wonder if the Hummer will come AWD. Damn I hate not knowing.

Well until these actually come out, and we get some reviews, I'm gonna try not to get too excited.

Doesn't look that way. The WRX and Skyline didn't come with it, so I'm betting that's a no.

Yeah, but those were cars. This has off road tires, looks jacked up, and its a Hummer!

... but who knows anyways, huh.

That would make too much sense fro RS to do something like that and when have we seen RS do any thing that made sense?

Well, if it has decent ground clearance, AWD, and GPM jumps on the bandwagon, I might get another xmod sometime next year. I doubt it though. =)

The EVO motor ki appears to have swappable pinions! Damn! If that shits compatible with the older xmods I'd be all over that like a croc on a northern territory camper.
