What HL version is your preferred choice?

After being away from rc for a while (monster trucks anyway) I'm considering a purchase in the future. I noticed many new trucks like the BL revo, savage flux, and the slash type trucks, but the highlift has caught my eye. I knew of two versions but recently saw the tundra. I'm not really into the tundra style but is the body the only difference or are there other upgrades not on the other two versions?

Also, what version do you guys prefer? The F-350, Hilux, or tundra? Do any of you use the MFC for it? I had an MFC on my big rig and couldn't imagine using it without.

I watched a few vids on youtube and think the hilux is the look I'd go for. Maybe the Ford. Kinda wish Tamiya would bring out a nice chevy lid for it then there wouldn't be a question. Anyway, lmk your thoughts.

the F-350 is undersized in my opinion, but decent

the tundra looks the best in stock configuration

the hilux looks wrong, the wheel wells were made fro 2.2's so at minimum you should upgrade the 1.9 tires, and the mirrors and bumpers dont look right to me... that being said, the hilux version has a lot of potential if you want to send some time mutilating the stock form

I'm going to go with the Hilux. As Electrohacker stated, the Hilux doesn't look right in stock form with the 1.9 setup unless you run taller 1.9 tires. The Hilux has more of a old school look to it and is the most popular body style among scale truck enthusiast and I like the way it looks.
