I saw someone say HPI is a good starter. Im going to have to watch this one.
I'm betting the dude has a $550-$600 reserve as in his eyes its almost new.

Most people who post auctions like that want almost full retail for their used vehicle.


Side note Savage flux good truck have one myself
Its great if you got large open areas, and ramps for jumps as they can take a royal beating, and not break.
Only problem is that the wheelie bar HPI makes for it is a completely worthless piece of crap, but there are DIY adaptations of ones off other vehicles that people came up with that require minimal modification to get to work, and work 10,000X better. I think I have a Stampedes Wheelie bar(I know its Traxxas not sure 2wd or 4wd) strapped to mine

Also they drive like a cinder block on wheels look at vids of them to see if you like it. Some people love them, some hate them. In all honesty they handle more like a normal monster truck at those monster truck jams
