Negotiate with your LHS. They will price it better then 599. Trust me on that.

A LHS in Indianapolis told me he would sell me one for 559, but he has always had great prices

Myself personally am going to wait because even if I did get it now I wouldnt be able to run it much more. So I have nothing to lose, but Im pretty sure the prices will go down. And who knows Losi might even do some more changes to the truck

Well said!

I couldn't stump up the cost (my mortgage and other bills take up most of my monthly wage) for the LST. I was so determined to own the fabulous machine, I have bought it on 12 months 0% finance!!

My girlfiend says I am stupid, but I know it was the right thing to do!

Can I get a bit of support here guys????

Adam.
