hello everyone i was really thinking about buying a revo 3.3 but am unsure about it could you all please tell me what you think about them i just want something that wont break the first day i buy it
 
go with the revo its a sweet ride, good handling, many upgrade parts and easy to get , alot of teh lhs shops have all the pieces. takes one hell of a beating , trust me i beat mine to crap and it holds up pretty good. speedy truck also, with a few upgrades it almost indestructable.
 
The REVO is one of the more durable RCs in its class. The parts are not expencive and the truck preforms well under most conditions. For the money you will be hard pressed to find a better RC.

As for upgrades, when you brake something, upgrade it.
 
i was gunna get a t-maxx 3.3 until bryson told me the revo was much more bashable. some upgrades that I'm gunna get are shocks, rpm arms, skid plate and hopefully FOC(forward only conversion)

hope this helps.
 
The shocks only need upgraded shafts, the stock bodies and ends are fine.

To me, the revo is more durable than the old or new maxx. As for handling... I haven't driven my revo more than once since april. That's when I bought my aftershock. After upgrading arms, wheels/tires, shocks and the pipe, it's a pretty tough rig as well. For me, it handles so much better than the revo for general bashing. Night and day difference. It was almost the same jump in handling as going from the savage to the revo.
 
i was looking at the tmaxx 3.3 but i will look into aftershock unsure of what to buy yet

Stay way fro the dual exhaust.....you want a trinity or the Traxxas resonator.The Trinity will be LOUD....but it wakes up any engine you slap it on. The resonator is a great general purpose pipe.

Follow eds advise here, upgrade when it breaks. The REVO is a great ride....enjoy!!
 
this mother fer is awesome and it didnt break first time out what big tires and rims would you all reccomend
 
big tires... i use 40 series wabash with crimefighters...

if you want some BIG tires, get the moabs.

congrats on the great truck!! you're definitely going to enjoy it!
 
hey , bigger isnt always better, i run the maxx chevron tires and love them , they are a good bashing tire, and instead of your truck flipping over at high speeds when you turn , well these tires will slide more to prevent flipovers.check them out
