does anybody have one of these? how is it a far as its duability. i know the engine is good because i have an xtm 18 in my rs4. also can someone pointout some of the pros n cons of this truck.
 
I have one and it is really fast, durability is another issue I would say it is not as durable as my Nitro Rustler as I have broke stuff on it doing less worse things to it but I know XTM just released some aluminum stuff for it. The steering isn't that great on it but better servos could help I like the shocks alot that it comes with really adjustable and easy. I would sell you mine if your interested, the XTM .18 on it hasn't even seen 1 gallon yet all it needs is a new clutch.
 
nitro 21 thanks. i dont think the mods will like it very much you soliciting in a regular forum. i was thinking to buy mine in december for christmas so i can't take you up on the offer. what have you broken on the truck. what kind of running were you doing that paints it out as not as good as the rustler?
 
Yeah sorry about, I have not put it in the for sale forum yet because I really have not been that interested in selling it but when I saw you might be looking for one I wanted to let you know I had one I might let go. Anyways what I have broken on the X-cellerator are the two front arms and a little damage to my shock tower which is pretty weak. What I have used it for is mainly on the street and some light off-road stuff I just dont like stadium trucks for off-road purposes that much. The 2 XTM .18's that I have had have been harder for me to tune and deal with than the 2.5 engine, the X-cellerator is faster than my Rustler though and the shocks are better and more adjustable than the Rustler shocks but in the end I prefer the Rustler. Another thing I dislike about the X-cellerator is XTM seems to be the only company putting out hop-ups for it and even then it isn't very many.
