Every single MT has there issues. Most the people who buy savages get them to bash hardcore with, 10 - 20 foot jumps etc.

I have only busted dog bones and servos with my savage, since replacing them I have yet to break anything else, even with 15-20 foot drops constantly.

Wanna get the big one? Wanna be mister big-tough-guy-hey-lookie-lookie-I-gotta-bigger-freudian-truck-than-you-so-im-cooler?

Then get a HB Dirt Demon... The thing is already hopped up and looks killer.

:stupid: that's why i'm doing this dawg...it's a part of my OWN research...i think every company will have positive things to say for each of their product...i think it's best to hear from people who actually have the shtuff because they know..., they've handled them, seen them, heard them, crashed them, Xperienced them. but thanks for the INFO.

If you dont mind doing a little assembly I HIGHLY recommend a Kyosho Mad Force. It is a seriously kick ass truck.

Man, you can't beat a Monster Pirate by OFNA for bashing. Now if your wanting to race, you have to change the tires.

If you want BIG, wait for AE's Monster GT. Since AE's making it, it should be a damn good MT too.

if theyll keep on delaying the release we might not see anything..or maybe theyre upgrading it to catch up with what came out recently .that means more money ..

It also means they're losing some sales. I think a lot of people who were waiting for the MGT to come out are going to get sick of waiting, especially with AE continuously pushing the release date back, and will buy something else.
