if it has the black chassis and orange esc it would be the older model 3906. since your kinda new i would keep it its still a fun and though truck. i've been in the hobby for 4 years now and that model emaxx was the first rig i bought. i've still got mine today love it. you can make them brushless this a link i found on line its got alot of good info on converting them to brushless.

Defiantly keep the emaxx and go brushless.

do you know what upgrades is on. to go brushless you will have to spend a lot. Maybe cheaper to buy a used brushless maxx.
If there hasn't been any upgrades done to it, i would keep it as a winter basher and brushed with the single dewalt motor or single 775 motor and the blue evx2 esc,
you'd still need to upgrade some things but these would probably need upgrading anyway using the twin 550 motors.Like the shafts, diffs, idlers.

Actually the new model 3903 e-maxx comes brushless ready, no upgrades needed to the driveline.

keep the e maxx and buy the parts off ebay while you drive what you have now. Unless you have the cash and dont wanna wait lol then buy a brushless. lol

if your changing to metal shafts you'll need to know if your 3906 is the narrow maxx or wide maxx. The easy way is to count the holes on the bootom a arm for the suspension if it's 4 it's widemaxx. if it's two it's the narrow maxx.
