So I got my REVO a few days ago and I have had a blast (took my last 20 vacation hours) I want to get another truck or car, In a truck I want 3 things in this order of importance 1. speed 2. be able to take a beating 3. climb stuff decently (curbs, wood piles, rock hills, sand hills whatnot) for a car I would want something really fast and durable.

I have 350 to spend and I am looking to buy used on ebay, I really like the looks of the Savage X 4.6 but I want to know some from somebody that has owned one or knows alot about them and the only car I have seen that I like is the 4TEC but I haven't looked at many cars


Thanks, Mike
 
i would choose a hyper st i have got 1 and i have not borke 1 part of it. it will go up curbs the same hight as the tyres and is fast. plus i would not get a second hand rc car because u dont know how they have bin treeted or if they have bin run in propper, even if they say it has it might not have bin
 
Everyone on this site who has a Savage, will tell you 'Hell yes you should buy one'. But, with anything used, you never know exactly how well it was taken care of.
 
Savage should be your choice, but watch out on ebay man, like Mr clean said, you never know exactly how well it was taken care of.
 
know anywhere where I can get a Savage X 4.6 for 400 or under? I am trying to sell my motorized mountianboard, looks like I am going to get 400 for it and that's all my wife is going to let me spend on it.
 
A new x 4.6 is only a little more than that man and TRUST me it's worth it! I have one and I love it!
 
Definitively worth it!

Here ya go

Use their Save $20.00 off Your $149 Order! and now you have a savage X for 399$;)

It's worth it for sure!

I just had my Savage X out the other day and was running into just about everything in sight(it was bumpy terrain, and I'm a bad driver..) and jumping it a ton and it's held up great!
