I am getting a nitro rustler 2.5 and wanted to hear the good and bad things about it! Thanks
 
I currently own one but I am selling it not because it wasn't good, its because it wasn't big enough for me. My savage suits the job. The rustler is a walking brick. It will not break! I swear, no matter how much times I drove it full speed into a curb, stormdrain, tree, crooked onto a ramp...whatever! That thing has not broke. The only junk part is the rear tires are crap, upgrade to ProLine Gladiators asap, those tires will help the rustler to pull wheelies on command. Also, break in the 2.5 to a tee because its gonna get finickey if you dont. Good purchase because the rustler can outrace the stock Ofna buggies, the Tmaxx2.5, the Savage S25, the MGT, and probably the LST when it comes out. I have to say, welcome to the club. (Brick Club)
 
my nitro rustler is awesome...runs awesome, easy to start, super fast, great power, and really durable. the onle weak part on it is the rear shock tower, i cracked mine right after break-in. other than that it's an awesome truck, i highly recomend it:thumbup:
 
well this is good to hear nothing to bad! Seems like i replaced every part on my T maxx 2.5 at least once!
 
I got It! workin on the break-in right now. Seems like it will rip and tear! Put the rpm a-arms on. Impressed so far! REALLY light compared to my t-maxx! LATER
