A stadium truck is generally classified as being 2wd (RWD) with 2.2 size wheels/tires front and rear. Of course you'll see a truck style body on these vehicles. Sometimes you may see 1/8 scale Truggies referred to as being stadium trucks. I don't particularly agree with that but generally speaking, stadium trucks are 1/10 scale and 2wd
Buggies can be either 2wd or 4wd depending on class and scale. All buggies have wings at the rear for extra downforce. Wheels and tires differ depending on the scale.
A truggy is basically a a cross between a monster truck and a buggy. Truggies are 4wd platforms based on buggies and have longer suspension arms and run much larger MT (monster truck) size wheels/tires

yep, pretty much. The gearing is different as well to compensate for the large difference in tire diameter.
