You said: " You still don`t get it do you ! The one main point that you choose to overlook is that when people want to run thier t-max hard they MUST buy upgrades, because it will continually break....its not a "choice" it IS a "Requirement". "
No I don't believe you, it is not a requirement. If that were true T-maxx would have died like the Terra Crusher.
Also if reliability was an issue I think that any one of the below listed articles might have pointed it out instead of praised the little rtr truck.
Also, I did not "choose" to overlook your "point", its just not there to be seen because it simply not correct.

“Traxxas redefined the world of nitro-powered monster trucks with the introduction of the T-Maxx.” - R/C Car Action Magazine, November 2002
“…one of the most significant vehicles in the history of the R/C hobby, the T-Maxx 2.5!” - R/C Car Magazine, December 2002
“The Traxxas box claims that the truck will hit 40-plus mph. They were being modest.” - R/C Car Magazine, December 2002
“Without exaggerating, I say this Traxxas engine has the most linear throttle action I have ever run-period. It’s powerband seems limitless and it spools effortlessly to a top speed of nearly 45mph.” - R/C Nitro Magazine, December 2002
"The new TRX 2.5 engine is everything it is hyped-up to be and then some. Once the general public gets to see just how fast the new truck is, they will quickly forget about wishing for a big block .21." - R/C Car Magazine, December 2002
“As the leader in ready-to-run nitro, Traxxas also aimed for maximum convenience with an all-new goof proof electric starting system and a comprehensive manual that sets a new standard for RTRs.” - R/C Nitro Magazine, December 2002
“The TRX 2.5 T-Maxx manual deserves recognition for being the best in the industry. The term 'manual' doesn't really do it justice; it's more like a 'getting started in nitro' book!” - R/C Car Action Magazine, September 2003
“…the T-Maxx’s new full-color, amply illustrated instruction book is a vital part of the performance package. The manual also includes a glossary of terms, to help nitro newcomers speak the “language.” Of course, the instructions also precisely cover even the simplest steps required to get the new Maxx from the box to the backyard, so even the complete novice can feel confident about his first run.” - R/C Car Action Magazine, November 2002
“The T-Maxx instructions have to be the best we have ever laid eyes on.” - R/C Nitro Magazine, April 2003
“Traxxas now includes a DVD with each of its 2.5-powered vehicles. Kit videos have been done before but the Traxxas vid is by far the best in terms of production and depth of information. Watching this DVD endures that even a rank beginner will be successful the first time out.” - R/C Car Action Magazine, February 2003
“Every RTR should be as easy as the new T-Maxx to get running.” - R/C Car Magazine, December 2002
“The first thing you’ll notice is how smoothly the drivetrain operates.” - R/C Car Action Magazine, February 2003
“The truck has spawned more than 130 fan websites and at least 70 aftermarket companies that create accessories for it. It even has its own racing class!” - R/C Car Action Magazine, November 2002
“The TRX 2.5 and its all-new support hardware are the focal points of the next generation T-Maxx. This engine smashes the mold of the typical RTR engine, using high quality components to produce incredible power and speed. It's a total package that is unique and likely rivals even the highest performance small blocks." - R/C Car Action Magazine, November 2002
“The T-Maxx consistently launched itself like a caged animal with its front wheels raised, and it accelerated at an impressive rate. The high-revving engine and tall gearing got it to the finish line first every time.” - R/C Nitro Magazine, April 2003
“The incredible TRX 2.5 engine...pumps out enough power to shame many "sport" big-block engines. The R/C Nitro dyno-test confirmed more than 1hp (1.33 to be exact) from the mighty mill, and it has no trouble pushing the T-Maxx past 40mph - and that's with electric starting!"- R/C Car Action Magazine, September 2003
“The TRX 2.5 is an all new design from the ground up. It is intended to produce Maximum power from a small block platform and for a reasonable price. Starting with a clean slate allowed Traxxas to incorporate numerous performance-enhancing features to ratchet the power output up beyond most other small blocks. It’s simply a superior all-around engine that will be tough to beat, even with certain big blocks.”
“There’s no other way to say this: The TRX 2.5 rocks- plain and simple. It makes world-class power and I’d install it in any race car… It’s a combination of all the right ingredients and superior engineering and is sure to be attractive to the power hungry.”
“The TRX 2.5 blows away every other small block engine we’ve tested.”

gaytor8: Only one thing, your POS combo mill lathe drill is on castors. (Ask a machinist to explain that to you).
Threat2U
I detect the kind of glaring logical inconsistencies in your 'reasoning' that only botched frontal lobotomy patients with crisscrossed shoelace scars on their sloped foreheads are capable of making.
Have any idea who has spent most of their advertising dollars in these mag's? Do you realy think that a mag is going to say their main advertiser's product is a POS? Do you think these magazines are bibles and the words are written by prophit's or something? No ! they are written by guy's just like you. (And just maybe some even a little more stunned....just maybe.)
BTW the milling machine/Lathe combo machine has levelling legs under it tard! (The castors are just for moving it from point A - B.)
