Status: offline 		OK, I was just watching some youtube videos and have decided that buggies totally rock for jumping. I guess they fly because they are so light. The ones I saw were nitros, though, and I want to stick with electric because I already have batteries, etc. etc.

So, at $200 is the Bandit VXL my best choice for a durable and fast buggy? I'm thinking of going brushless for the speed they are capable of. It would get me to those nitro speeds hard to come by in brushed setups.

I am really looking for something that is durable out of the box. I won't be racing so handling is not a big issue. Don't care much about looks either. Used is fine too, as long as it is fast and durable.

Are there any other choices in new vehicles that can match a Bandit for that price? Used setups for that price that I should consider? It's almost like the Bandit buys the Velineon system and they throw in the rest of the buggy for free. Hard to pass up.

Thanks

Is the Bandit the Rustler of the buggy world?
If it's halfway decent, then it is so hard to pass up at such a cheap price.
