Finally, I have my new truck. 
It's a Team Associated SC8!
I originally ordered it from Tower Hobbies but the one I wanted(Pro Comp) was back ordered. While waiting,I decided to see if I could find a better deal(I am a cheap-skate). Well the cards fell in place and I came across this one. It was brand new opened box but never taken out(it was still strapped in) and I was able to pick it up for $425 shipped. Not bad considering the best I could find is $533 + shipping and then Robmob showed me how to get it for $510 shipped at tower. Even with the extra savings I still kinda wondered if I would be disappointed due to the different body but that went away as soon as I opened the box!
Well enough chit-chat - here she is brand new,fresh out of the box! A VERY rare thing for me!
This thing is stinkin' awesome! Lots of nice features including metal gear servos,hard anno shock bodies and anno's alum shock towers. Also I really like the rollcage.
Of course I have a few upgrades to do right away. I've got LiPo rx battery,I'm upgrading to digital servos and installing my Futaba FASST rx. I've also got a custom body design in mind and I need to decide if I want to put my Picco P3-28 in or use the stock engine. Anyway, it may be a while before I get to break it in, but it's HERE!
