I would go with the Savage, Its not that the CEN trucks are bad. But when/if you break something you dont want to wait for your parts to show up when you can go down to the LHS and pick them up right then and there. For your first truck I would sudgest getting a Savage. Its a great truck, and you can easily get parts for it localy. After you know more you might try to get a diff truck. But for your first, I would make sure that the parts are local. it definatly helps.
