Your Opinion Counts(at least to me)

I am in a sticky situation,my buddy got a savage xl k 5.9 and i love it.Wow what a truck but at almost $600.00 gonna take a lil while to get up the cash.
Does anyone have any opinions on the savages VS. the others like losi's,t-maxx,MGT,or any others i didnt mention.Would love to get honest opinions from some one other than a person selling that particular truck if you get my drift...Thanx in advance guys,Tim

The Savage will be the most durable out of all of them most likely. If you just want to bash, I say go for it. If you're looking to race, and bash, go with a Revo. It's still pretty durable, and has better racing capabilities.

I'd say go with a losi LST/Aftershock/LST2/Raminator.

If you can shop on ebay might find a really good deal on savvy 5.0 or something like it for not so much.

LOSI LST2 or Aftershock all the way. You can bash them and they jump gret or you can race the LST2 for sure.

Well, if you have only one bashing buddy and he has a savage, getting a savage would be a good idea. Then you can share help and parts if need be.

The savage is a great bashing rig. Really, there aren't many that can compete for bashing. Others can made to be competitive for it's durability, but out of the box, the savage is probably the toughest.

That's if you stick with a MT. A cheap 1/8 scale buggy... I haven't seen one yet that wasn't tough as a coffin nail. But, they won't run well in varieties of terrain a savage will.

Yhea Olds is right. A Savage would be a good MT if your buddy has one.
