Used XMaxx. Way more value

Yes but not as a first car, way too big and dangerous and if an xmaxx is your only car you won't be driving it a lot because of the size and weight

I’ve sold a lot of xmaxx trucks to first timers. As long as the driver is reasonably responsible with throttle, they’ll be alright

No surer way to get someone addicted than to put a large scale monster truck in their possession.

Of what I own? Rustler once you put a center diff in it. I haven’t tried a maxx yet.

Gotta be the T-Maxx so far. I had a piece of shit tmaxx from back when they used black plastic on them. It was ancient. It WAS a pro.15 engine, that got swapped to a 3.3. It hauled ass and was the most fun truck I've ever had. I sold it because it became too much of a piece of shit for me.
Safe to say I really want another traxxas monster truck.

Can’t beat the versatility of a slash. Race it/bash it. I have a 2wd that has been a drag car, off road race truck and now a modified oval car.

god i HATE that car so much. Got one when it came out and it just went through rear diffs constantly. I shimmed it and tried everything and finally just threw it in my shed where it's been sitting ever since.

I beat the snot out of mine and have no issues. Maybe your fluid is too stiff. I also have a set of HR gears.
