i have been wondering what the bigget mt on the market is in size not popularity and power thanks all i wanted to know.....
 
id say the new losi monster truck coming out will be it. But the biggest one out now that I've seen is probably the Associated Monster GT. Or the Hot Bodies Dirt Demon. The XTM Mammoth is huge 2. :horsecrap
 
i think the cen genesis will be the biggest when it comes out

nitro13,
 
Big overall I'd say XTM Mammoth or the XTM Xtreme. The new LOSI is gonna own. If you wanna talk biggest with conversion. TRUCKZILLA .46:yes:
 
bigger doesn 't mean it will own anything. the driver makes the truck thus its a combo!

the CEN genesis is the biggest beefiest truck weighing in at alomst 15 pounds.The genesis is also measured in at24 inches long and is 18 inches wide.to power this vehicle is a .46 "Big Block" it rolls on 7.5 inch chrome wheels that help to navigate over the terrain.
 
Ha! Ha! Yeah they are the biggest on the market. But for 1/8 scale the Genesis and the Mammoth are and will be the biggest MT's.
 
You could tow your car out of a ditch or in the snow with that thing, all while sitting in the car haha.
 
Some good data on the CEN Genesis on the link below. Click on R/c nitro cars on the left and then click on the CEN Genesis link. The last pic (scroll all the way down), will give you an idea of it's size compared to a 1/10 sized MT.
Some highlights:
220cc fuel tank
7.5 inch tires
4 wheel steering
Front, Center and Rear fluid filled diffs
.46 Engine (7.7 cc displacement)
resevoir shocks
3 speed tranny

the last pic is of the genisus next to a fun factor mt so its hard to say exactly how much bigger it is than the t-maxx because of the angle of the pic.. I could take a pic and make my savage look that big next to my fun factor.
 
The fun factor wasn't a great release by CEN, it really wasn't...the powerplant was good, but the chassis wasn't as durable as one would expect, I guess thats what you get from a three piece chassis. The Genesis also looks like a knock off from every truck
on the market, here are pieces I see stolen and put on the Genesis:
HPI TVP design

HB .46 displacement (I mean really, .46 again? Y not .49?)

RC Trix T-Maxx Extra Shock Conversion (The shocks on top of the towers)

T-Maxx style drivetrain parts

AE's stock-piggybacks (But do these actually work?)

Driveshafts from a Rustler/T-Maxx

Shock towers from a Savage

I've also noticed that the engine, pipe, and fuel tank are all on the same side...which may cause the fuel to heat up even before it is burnt, which isnt the greatest thing in the world.

I'm not trying to tell you not to buy this truck, but I have to say that I haven't come across one good cen quality kit yet, and I have experienced the fun factor MT and fun factor MT2 and there was no improvement except for a stronger powerplant.
 
I agree about the cen. mine brakes every time i drive it and parts are hard to find. since its a piece of crap i decieded to make it a project and put my old .21bb on it. can't wait to see what bends of flys of when i finish it.
 
one more thing I forgot to mention about the Fun Factor MT2: The rear dogbones arent fitted correctly so there is binding when the suspension is compressed...
I do agree that parts are hard to find, you really need to go to ebay or tower or something to get replacements.
