Default Any Oklahoma Tankers?

I'm almost afraid to ask the quetion if someone is on lurking or otherwise from Oklahoma. Seems what ever i'm interested in no one around here is into it. But we shall see. I've been a tamiya fan for years, and caught the Inside Rc episode on tanks and now I need one. Maybe I can get something going in this area who knows. If it isn't running full speed on dirt or flying then there isn't much going with RC for you. Although we do have an active sailing club which I enjoy..anyhow.

I'm looking at the Tamiya Sherman, pretty much read about 7 pages of this group. So like anything opinions will vary with the # of responses i'm sure. How about best place to buy, I find prices all over the spectrum it seems.

Thanks,
Charlie

Some people will not agree that it is the best place to buy, but I think that the cheapest place to buy is through Ebay:

$339.00 tank
$110.00 shipping
$449.00 total

Rookie tanker here living in Moore. Do not own a Tamiyama, law school eats my funds. I do own a 1/24 vs leopard and a 1/16 HL pershing.

Adios
