I think it really comes down to a preference, not so much the type of vehicle you want to purchase drive. Calling someone a noob because they dont purchase what YOU think they should is outright arrogant. We all have a common interest here and its the hobby, some of us bash, some of us race, and unfortunately some on here race and think they should dictate what other people purchase. I gave up on this site about 4 months ago, well here I am giving it another shot. I personally really enjoy rcuniverse, but the logic of some people...lol. Friday night I purchased a superclodbuster and a bullhead. Me and my son built the bullhead over the weekend and now we are going to start on the clod. I love monster trucks, ITS MY PREFERENCE, no one ever said they were better racers than a .....race tuggy/buggy. It seems we have lost forcus on whats important...FUN! I love the way a savage is a challenge to drive because it handles like a dumptruck, or the way the tamiya clods bounce around like real mt's, or that a revo brings better handling to the table (not as good as a truggy before someonejumps the gun) while still behaving monster truckish, the way they grab second gear and the front end jumps up, the smile on me and my childrens face's!! One of my favourite things about monster trucks is the mechanics behind them, the fact that they have a transmission, the fact that you can see the driveshafts below the truck like a real monster, the bodies they come with, the stance, just the way they look.

I dont race, never will, but i will never agree that one person should dictate what other people buy because its what they like.
