First and for most the Blackout XTE that will be available in both brushed and brushless versions .
This Truck isn't as huge as the Terremoto-10 but falls right in line with the majority of 1/10th scale Monster trucks out there . Best I can figure this truck was originally meant to be sold as the Terremoto-10 's cheaper little brother and I think it is meant to replace both the volcano and the caldera lineups as its MSRP. undercuts both lines .
Brushless price compare:

MSRP. $229.99
http://www.redcatracing.com/Volcano-EPX-PRO
MSRP. $249.99
http://www.redcatracing.com/CALDERA-10E_3
MSRP. $259.99
Brushed price compare :

MSRP. $149.99
http://www.redcatracing.com/Volcano-EPX
MSRP. $159.99
Now as far as features design etc. this truck doesn't really break any molds and I don't see it setting the world on fire but what I do think its going to be is a reliable platform and a exceptional value . By the way Redcat is including a 3200 Mah lipo battery and a basic lipo charger with the brushless version just to up the ante a bit .
I have also changed the compation to the Terremoto-10 to include the Blackout XTE.
Now on to the 2 other soon to be released trucks .
The Everest-10 and Everest 1/16th scale Rock crawlers .

Now These Crawlers May look familiar to you as they did to me . The OEM manufacture is HSP and they have a couple of variations of these crawlers being sold under various Brand names . The most notable name these are sold under is the Maxstone name . They are generally regarded as very good crawlers for first time buyers .
I just want to build a mini monster truck with one :-)
