lookin at gettin either a slash or rustler vxl or axial crawler

i just can't decide which one


just up late and lookin at all three

well just thought i would start a thread about it lol

purchase will be in the next week or so if that
 
lol so what do you want advice?

If you go with the axial get the ARTR edition. You have to buy your own electrics and radio gear but its much better than the rtr and a little better than the kit.

Slash's I hear are awesome. Never heard much good about a rustler in general.
 
yeah i no about the crawler i just bumped ur heli thread lol...

just dont no what to get wish i could just order all three and be done for now

let me ask this then is a slash that much more durable the a rustler
 
from what i hear and have seen the slash is the most durable truck traxxas has ever made. I am pretty positive it will be my next rig. It's not the fastest truck stock but you can make it FAST :D
 
Rustler is a very good truck, and although in the same class as the slash, (stadium) in my opinion the slash is a lot more fun.
Parts availabilty is the same, cause the parts are the same, but if you like to have to DRIVE your cars then the slash is by far the one......
 
I was in the same boat two months ago. I was having a tough time deciding between the Slash, Rustler and a more expincive HPI Firestorme. I went with the Slash and don't regret it a bit. It has, thus far, taken more beatings than my two cheap nitro's and still keeps going.
One of my nitro's has burnt up diffs and the other thrown drive shafts. If you look at some of my past posts I was struggling with what to choose and decided with the Slash and don't regret it a bit.

You of all people should be pushing for the slash, A: hes your buddy B: YOU SAW US BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF OURS. If it wasn't for my gearing mistake, there would have been no problems with either, and we practicly killed each other.
 
the firestorm is a solid truck and i think it looks better than a slash. Just my personal preference. There is no doubt the slash is a tough truck but my vote goes to hpi in that category.
If you have the terrain for a crawler, i would certainly get the axial artr. If you have a good place to drive it, a crawler can be more fun than any other rc.

forget about the rustler.
