Thanks for the help so far.  I never knew these things even existed.  

Is the stampede as tough as the slash?  I saw a few vids of the slash getting bashed pretty good and begging for more.

Does the OFNA 10TT Truggy come ready to run out of the box?  I really like that one, it's pretty cool looking.  Is OFNA a good name?

I will try to find some reviews for the Wraith today, that thing looks completely awesome. 

This hobby looks fun and expensive

I keep hearing that the HPI Flux or Savage is the toughest truck out there, is that true?</p>
