Meet the CarPenguin: Your Pre-Owned RC History Report

When you buy a pre-owned vehicle from TerraScale RC, you aren’t just getting a truck—you’re getting its full story. Every single pre-owned rig we sell comes with a physical CarPenguin printed on premium cardstock, packed right in the box with your vehicle.

Think of it like a traditional vehicle history report, but tailored specifically for the hobbyist and built with a little more personality.

What is a CarPenguin?

The CarPenguin is our custom-built inspection and history card designed to give you total peace of mind before you hit the trail or the course. Instead of wondering how a used rig was treated, the CarPenguin lays it all out clearly so you know exactly what you’re getting.

What’s Included on Every Report?

  • Vehicle Origin & Mileage (Run-Time): A quick breakdown of where the vehicle came from and an estimate of its operational history.
  • Condition & Component Check: Notes from our workbench detailing the status of the drivetrain, electronics, body, and suspension.
  • Upgrades & Modifications: A clear list of any aftermarket parts, custom 3D-printed accessories, or upgraded electronics installed on the rig.
  • Workbench Sign-Off: Verification that the vehicle has been fully tested, tuned, and confirmed 100% operational by our team before listing.

Why Do We Include It?

We know that buying pre-owned can sometimes feel like a gamble. We wanted to eliminate the guesswork. By handing you a physical CarPenguin printed on sturdy cardstock, we ensure complete transparency—giving you a cool keepsake for your workbench and the confidence that your new-to-you rig is ready to work or crawl straight out of the box.

Look for the CarPenguin badge on all of our pre-owned listings and find your next rig with confidence!
