RE: e maxx or what???
i have an e maxx and the mammoth but my e maxx doesnt run because the evx is out on it this is the third time and i hate the truck but when it was running it was great. i would never go back to electric though but thats my opinoin. its got a lot of power for an electric truck so if you want electric thats what i would go for.

RE: e maxx or what???
I have an emaxx and have been into rc for 16 years. I love it its the best electric monster out there hands down. One big upgrade is to get yourself a decent charger and two gp 3300 battery packs and youll see a huge difference. If you want something that handles and jumps great and can be made fast cheap look at a stampede. Once a fellow rc racer i know jumped his pede over a fullsize chevy van long ways and landed nothing broke on pavement! At the track we used to race 2wd monster stock class. Mostly pedes with a stock turn motor six cells and man they are so much fun to race. I am not sure what rc type you are looking at but both are great chooses. peace

I have a savage, emaxx and stampede . For me nothing beats nitro and even though I drive me electric cars they just dont get the blood pumping like nitro . The emaxx is , for me , the best electric monster truck out there but by the time you spend the money to make it run long and fast enough you might as well buy a Tmaxx/savage, etc and a stampede . Bang for the buck you cant beat the stampede . It is not a monster truck but sure is fun. My suggestion is TMaxx and Pede for 500.00. you can drive your Pede during cool down periods.

Cool down periods of what??? during tanks of gas?
Meh when the cars are running I never stop untill it stalls or breaks... sometimes 3 or 4 tanks in a row

dude, tamiya TLT-1. that thing is sic, you can get 4-wheel steering and the unique suspension design allows for some sic articulation, somthing that the e-maxx cant do, and the e-maxx has no after market 4-wheels steer upgrade.

Dood buy an E maxx. I had one and it was one of the best trucks I have ever had. I ran 14 cells through it all the time and never had any problems.

RE: e maxx or what???
other then rock crawling 4 wheel steering is useless. I had a clodzilla 4 all done up and didnt use four wheel you roll at average speeds. I locked the back up and made the front turn sharper. If you want speed power and handling get an emaxx if you want to spend a lot on a electric crawler get a clod or txt 1. My opinion the emaxx is tops in its category and you cant beat the price point for what you get outta the box. peace
