Best monster truck out there?

[El Pirata]

If you're going off raod what's the value of the 3 speed tranny? I mean more often than not by the time you hit 3rd gear you'll be turning or have flipped.

lol i dont even own a mad force lol. dude its cool but I've seen some pretty sweet videos of it in action.

the question about the 3 speed. hmmm i think that the first gear is for like crawling and acceleration.. I really can't see any adavatage bettween a 2 and 3 speed. o well i would think it would be cool if you could shift 3 gears though.


:spam :OMG: i just had to put those in there

In a car on straightaways sure there are advantages to a 3rd gear.

While the Savage 21 might fetch a slightly higher price I can't see it bein more than $50 - $100 more than an rtr t-maxx.

 

[Rob D]

tower lists them for 429 and stormer at 419 so not a lot higher

Rob

 

[El Pirata]

Is that the new savage 21 or the old savage?

Cool beans. I know what I want for x-mas.

 

[El Pirata]

Yeah, but with this you are getting an rtr 21 for the same price as a 15.

Well; I've see that mad force as a display model at a hs; and it did look kinda neat because of the fact that it has a 3 speed trans instead of just a 2 speed and its a chain driven trans istead of a shaft driven. But; personally; all in all I would rather stick with the tmaxx for the mt and for a 21 anything I would rather save that for a buggy.

The MF is NOT chain driven. It has 2 shafts both front and rear.
