No Steve, its back on now. Truck has to be purchased after Feb 1 and proof of purchase must be recieved by traxxas no later than May 17th.
One of my flying mates bought a pair of Sportmaxxen for his kids as Christmas presents.
When he tried to get his two FREE two-speed transmission upgrades he was told by Traxxas that "the deal didn't apply to mail-order purchases."
Check the fine print before you buy.
He is right. Here is a cut / paste email I got yesterday from Traxxas:
Burn some rubber...the tires are on us!
Traxxas is giving away FREE wheels and tires with the purchase of a Nitro 4-Tec or Nitro Rustler from your local hobby shop. It's a great extra value on two of our hottest performers! Follow the link below for more information.

Get a FREE two-speed upgrade module when you purchase a Traxxas SportMaxx from your local hobby shop. This one module can add more than 10mph to the speed of a SportMaxx (over 40mph when installed!). The Link below has all the details.

Only from dealers.
Personally, I wanted reverse / 4wd / 2 speed which I think was only an option with the savage. That's why I went with the T-maxx. For the extra 80 bucks, it seems like a better deal then buying a sportmaxx and having to upgrade it down the road.
Gotta figure out where / how you want to use the machine, then decide which to buy.
My $.05. Keep the change
