- The Cen Racing F450 is definitely cool, but why is it so expensive? With it's mall crawler looks and internals that leave something to be desired, I show you all the upgrades I've done and take it out to see how well it crawls, how fast it goes and how well it tows. We'll discuss the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to this RC truck.

Who really actually "needs" any RC car. If it makes you smile and brings you enjoyment, then it's worth it. I been eyeing one as a tow rig also, might pull trigger this year.
did u get it? if so whats it like lol
I found it on sale for $330 in fall of 2022. There is no way to "justify" any of these RC purchases - they are just fun!
rc sparks is in the middle of one of the worst mid life crisis i have ever seen holy hell it’s painful to watch i used to really love that channel now i can’t stomach it
Kinda thought I was the only one... seems to have come back the best thing is the RC community is loving ❤️
I got it on the $329 sale. It's solely a looking tow truck. 2.2 rim /5inch tires and 40mm lift and I wanna add more. It's a builders truck.
Was worth it just for that awesome outro on the frozen lake I'd say! Really enjoyed this one👍😀
Really nice set up enjoy the week
Good one about RCsparks. That dude has went off the deep end for sure lol
He talked to his son on IG about doing porn with his mom. I don't even know why he's still on any platform
Yeah…. Kinda strange. A little heartbreaking.
I saw that unfortunately. Definitely glad my parents didn’t publish conversions they had with me as a child on SM…
Huge RC Sparks fan, but definitely not into his new-ish stuff.
@@10thScaleGarage what happened with him? i used to watch him a few years ago before the beef with kevin talbot happened
Thanks for sharing. Cool sound system, looking for one myself.
Yeah. I like it so far.
I Have one, Bought it for towing, It's not a crawler, I have Crawlers and I make stuff. I use it for towing and built a gooseneck. I will say I did replace the motor, rc4wd crawler motor to help with towing torque. I'm running the stock servo, gearbox & driveline but I did do custom frame extension to correct the hitch mount location. Custom made gooseneck hitch. I do wish it had different body mounts. Look my videos of it.
Folks don’t understand too well that this truck is made for pulling trailers on the pavement too well. That is what its made for. Its a hotshot truck. I guess you have to be a hotshot trucker to understand its purpose
Agreed
I got the kg1 silver one. It's a good tow rig but falls short on speed. However with my custom built trx-4 and gatekeeper on a customer trailer this thing just looks cool and I junked the radio system in it immediately. Added a 12 turn aarma motor and I'm happy with it.
Happy New Year buddy!!
Happy new year!
I've wanted one since they came out and have the same thoughts and feelings as you. It just looks cool in a cheesy way and will look even better putting a boat in the water, lol.
I always liked the look of the pickup, but I dislike how the body shakes over the flattest ground. Great video as ever. Happy New Year.
Happy new year
Nice drifting
you found its purpose, drifting on ice this looks so cool! long body, if it can take. 3S it will slide as a drifter.
Good morning brother cool video
This better be a sponsored video n you got that pos for free
Nope.
Lighten up bud. Rc is for fun
Lol translation I really want the cen 450 than I looked the price . Human nature I bet you been more complimentary had you got it for free . It's exactly what said cool but should be alot better . At this point they just making any ol price bc they know we buy it . 🤷 it's the only one purley a marketing score for them . If there were others that truck would be 299 tops . Hell...charge 600 and make it really nice light buckets clear windows hw10 esc ..this making Traxxas prices look pretty good. Trx 6×6 is a tank well built
Nice cars cool colors
They make killer mud trucks!
I need a cen racing f450 too. Im a hotshot trucker so it fits me well
Laughed😂 so hard, aha cool video! Love looking at my Cenf450
I have one and I love it, FYI I bought it used/new for 200. H-Tech makes cool stuff for it too
Which makes it even more extremely expensive after the fact ! 👍
Excellent score!
What sound kit is that!? It sounds awesome!
What's going on with rc sparks? Haven't visited his challen in a hot minute
🔥
I have it, I just wanted it, now I would just order clear body and stretched knockoff trx chassis under it instead :D And tbh I probably will do this to have 2 :D
(replaced servo, replaced shock for longer one, new wheels, new tires, new electronics...)
I fully support this decision.
So you hate it, you like it. What is it. You kinda got on my nerves at 1st but i kept watching and turn into crazy and cool video. 😅😅
It’s super expensive for what it is, but yeah…. For what I do with it, it’s perfect.
These are on sale right now for $319.
At 6:40, mute the sound, and play "Running in the 90's" in the background
Hahaha. Love it.
I bought one brand new for 300 shipped...from rc planet.... i think thats more of a fair deal!
At least it tows well. Lol.
I can't believe it doesn't have light buckets or anything.
I wish more rc truck beds were deep like this one
I wanna put my Rottweilers figure in the bed and how have it look weird because the bed isn’t deep enough 😂
Lol yea haven't bought one because of the price, and if it was on pimp my ride or something well maybe
Hahaha. Nice.
lol RCSPARKS! dude has smoked entirely too much..
Seriously though. Medic from RC Sparks lost me when he started plugging his OF page on his RC Sparks page. I keep my pron and my RC cars separate like church and state.
It is an awful lot of money for basically a car hauler. I've avoided this for basically all the reasons you pointed out lol. If it was a bit closer to the $200 price point, I certainly would consider it. I feel something like a TRX-4 Sport or SCX10 would be just as capable, if not more so, at towing a trailer with a car.
You’re correct, but I’ve never been one to make logical decisions.
Cant agree with you more, that’s why i stayed away from this model, i love my CEN Reeper!!! But hey it is a Ford F450 it better fukin tow its ass off 😜
Yes boat launches!
Heck yeah.
I have this also.....nothing but cheap made JUNK!!!
Cool ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
CEN should make a FULL LIGHT kit for the 450 series Trucks WTF ?????????????
What trailer is that?
Hmmmm. Injora???? I can’t remember
@@10thScaleGarage oh ok
The only thing cool is the sound system, IMO. Cen Racing: "Let's build a super cheap POS, but make it look cool and sell it for a premium price. Brilliant!"
He bought that extra don't even come with that. They knew they could price gauge. It be great for 299 , they charged extra 150 just because they could. I'd say that truck 100 125 bucks to produce
Joe Quarterback this Sunday for browns 🙏🏾
Lolz
U mean... dj sparks?
Great question. A co worker has 2 and they are very cheaply made for the price.
Yeah….. the trans scars me.
@@10thScaleGarage I dunno.. that weirdo kevin t. ran it on 8s
It looks ridiculous, but also cool, haha.
I have one and by for for the money totally not worth it. It breaks all the time. I would of rather bought another trx4
It’s does look pretty cool
Just like real thing other than pulling a trailer it's worthless
Wow may be worst for $ ever seen,money spent upgrade,may as well get traxxas 6 wheel
Yeah Cen could have made this 450 look awesome but NOT !!!!!!!!!!
Looks like an rc truck with no real purpose...
