I just bought a Traxxas Rustler 4x4 VXL and I am really happy with it. I bought it online from RC Superstore and had no problems with them. I also bought a Traxxas EZ-Peak charger. This charger will charge older nonID Traxxas batteries and other brands of Lipos also. I bought a SMC 3s Lipo with a Traxxas connector installed that I charge with this charger. There is a little cover on the front of the charger you can remove to access the balance lead connection. The main connection will accept either new or old style Traxxas connectors. If you have a Non-Traxxas connector adapters are available from Amazon.
