Just remember you get what you pay for, and that goes with the vast varieties of parts.

Pretty cool looking though for sure
 
you get what you pay for champ
a friend of mine wanted a nitro truck real bad and wouldnt listen to a word i said.Instead he goes on ebay and buys one of these cheap ass chinese trucks that lasted 1 1/2 tanks and died now its just a $500 paper weight taking up room with my trucks
moral of the story spend more up front and less in the long run buy a traxxas or hpi truck and enjoy using it not repairing it
 
mock all you want .....i'm sure you'll be on here every 5 minutes with some inane question and alot of people want to say i told you so
i'm merely giving you my opinion and personal experience take it as you want i couldnt care less...........
I'll be out with my truck
 
I think you will find it's not made very well & parts will be very hard to come by.

All of the you won't believe what I got this for trucks I have ever seen did not last long, off road trucks & buggy's take a brutal beating.

Check your local area craigslist, you would be amazed at the deals that can be had i you are diligent in looking for them.

Got a link to $175 wonder truck?

Now theres no need to be rude on the subject, no matter what brand HE DECIDES on we will be here no matter what to help him out.
Nuff said :D
 
as all ways my friends ideas are great. but ill add that having a good hobby shop is very important. a good shop is not all ways easy to find. my very good shop is gone now. its best to buy your car/truck from the shop you are going to use. they will give you better service.
 
Mate,not tryin to be rude or arrogant but it really burns me up when people sell these trucks on ebay with some video of it doing everything bar flying only to get one and its not worth the box it came in
But at the end of the day its your choice and thats my opinion,take it as you want
 
Don't get a mgt even though there bad arse parts take forever to get and I've been contemplating heavily on just making it full custom just so I don't have to wait 4 weeks plus for something that costs $2.00

Everyone on this forum has advised you on what to buy, but you still insist on purchasing off-brand crap rigs. you get what you pay for, and unless you learn to listen, you will be plagued with problems stemming from buying off brand R/Cs that just aren't up to par.

Dude, do not buy that truck. Listen to what we're telling you about buying off-brand stuff. If you want something you can depend on and something you will be able to get parts for, stick with the name brands. Traxxas, HPI, Losi, Ofna and the others these guys have told you about. We've been doing this long enough to know whats good and whats not.

there all in the $500 + mark :(

You can get a nice used one on Ebay for a lot less than that. But on Ebay, you don't want to spend too much because if you have to replace the engine, you might end up having almost as much in it that you could have bought a new one. And be very aware of the sellers feedback score.
