i'm wondering more along the lines of what theyre worth

Thats the biggest difference in the US rock crawling scene. Due to the terrain that they are driving, Super light rigs that are VERY low are the dominating force in the U.S Rockcrawling scene!

If you have a look at Strangerovers it is quite low!
