I have a CNC Aluminum T-Maxx 2.5 Super Skeleton, I was wondering if anyone could tell me how much they usually run?
 
haha..thats funny right there, i don't care who you are..

well i would just google it or go to some RC sites and search for it.. would you be looking to sell it or what are your plans?
 
They can easily go for 250 depending on the condition. It does suck since most have avoided the Maxx like a disease but there are some Maxx owners that still love them. Ebay would be a great place for it.
 
LOL truth..Its all Aluminum..It sucks..
It does look good as a shelf queen..
But worth less to drive.

This is true. ALl the weight in aluminum will require a decent mill not a 15 size mill. Then you will need to get decent Drivetrain parts. No need to get this and then put cheezy parts. 21 size at least.

Even if you put a .21 in it..The first time you hit some thing.You wind up with a bent up ride.that will never sit right or drive stright again.

Again good point but it will move. Your point is the reason i don't care for that much aluminum.

There was this guy swearing up and down at my LHS that aluminum was WAYYYYYYY better than plastic. This guy thought his truck was a tank. By the end of the practice at the track, he had broken three front arms, the bumper mount, and both skid plates. To replace it all cost him over $150, for a single days run. My all plastic maxx didn't break a thing.
 
Well, I got $400 and $250... any other ideas? I'm just curious as to whether or not I got a good deal on it. Thanks.
 
Truth If it is is new.And I do mean new Never used.Put it on Ebay..
Used I would pay around 100$ for it.
Ebay is you best bet..
The only thing its good for is A shelf Queen.
 
Well, it's not gonna be a shelf queen, at the price I got it for it's decent enough for me to rebuild my truck with, I have almost everything I need to rebuild my truck to a 2.5. But anyways, I'm not that hard of a basher so I don't plan on thrashing my new aluminum parts.

I did that enough with my old Pro .15 and I spent less money on this skeleton and all the parts than I did on the .15 when I bought it new.
