mini mauler opinions
I was looking for a small truck to run around the house and I was wondering how the mini mauler was. This truck has a lot of mixed reviewes, some people love it and some people say it is trash. I'm not looking for the best truck out there (I have a 18mt also) just somthing to have fun with and low maintence. and please only post if you have a mm or had one in the past.

RE: mini mauler opinions
I have one and my dad has one, we run them around the house all the time. They are great fun and the only problem we have had was my steering servo messed up about 7 months after i got the truck. The nice thing about them is that they are small enough that they can make a small room seem like alot of space to run the truck in. I would definately reccomend it. Most of the people that are giving them bad reviews have never even drove one.

RE: mini mauler opinions
Well I bought my new mini mauler on wednesday at the hobby town that just opened near by. For all the people that say this thing is junk they should drive one. No it is not the highest quality mini out there but it is a blast running it around the house and the rock garden. My 18mt is great but it is still to big to run in the house and the turning radius is twice what the MM is. well with that being said, thank you for the input it was very helpful.

RE: mini mauler opinions
Is the MM 2WD or 4WD? And do you think the Mini T bodys would fit it? I'm looking to get my son(5 year old) a mini but he wants it to have a Escalade body. Thanks
