Default Maybe I posted in the wrong place.

Hey all I'm still new to RC's. I have had a Jato for about a month now. I love it have made some changes in suspension and gearing. It is a great street truck fun in the dirt and grass. But it does not like to go everywere. I am looking at these truck's Mayhem ST, Revo, Savage 25, or the. One thing I would like is reverse, roto start and a very stable truck. I know that that the Savage and the Mayhem don't have reverse. Also the savage is pull start. i just don't know what truck to get. The guy I talk to at the lhs tells me the Revo or mayhem. Need help making up my mind. Any others I am missing, I am thinking about buying sunday maybe.

Thanks for the help in advance!! "Drowning in a sea of choices!!!!" [sm=drowning.gif]

The savage 25 LE has a three speed and has a roto-start installed plus if you want reverse go buy the reverse module its only gonna cost ya about $30, but im not sure how much for a servo though. Plus if you want speed the 3 speed makes the savage the fastest truck there.

A Monster GT 4.6 SE would be a great choice........Roto and pull and a easy to set up truck. Lots of hop ups too

The monster gt has the smoothest and most reliable reverse around (IMO) ... the revo's reverse has issue's (search around the revo board)
