[4WD SC Truckz] Losi 5IVE-T vs MCD W5 SCT

RE: [4WD SC Truckz] Losi 5IVE-T vs MCD W5 SCT
MCD - because I have that platform in my stable already and the base design of the chassis and layout are a proven winning combo. The Losi is nice but I am turned off by all the aftermarket upgrades folks are getting out of the box to make it perform competively...kinda lowers the value of the stock package.
FYI - I will get a Hurrax before my next MCD

I'm in the market and leaning towards the Losi, I definitely think parts availability will be better with the Losi for me (USA), and it already has large aftermarket support, with that said the MCD looks to be a worthy opponent and I look forward to hearing more about it but at this point it seems almost non-existent.

Interesting review from a MCD owner who owns both.

i was looking at largescalerc and they have the mcd tires but not that style.

I saw the Losi today, that thing is massive.
Losi really changed the game with this truck, it looks more like a 1/4 scale to me.
