I personaly have bashed a buggy on several occasions and had a blast. Great racer but can function as a toy if wanted. When I raced Losi trucks though, I tried just taking them out to play on a couple of occasions and it was not the same. What the buggy gives up in ride height, it makes back in sick amounts of power. The Stadium trucks though were just never as fun. They are very very fast on a track and very agile but in general off road, climbing crap and whatnot, they just didn't have the ground clearance or the power so they were pretty much track only vehicles. If I were wanting another MT, I would just have to figure out what my LHS had the most readily available parts for though becuase they are all fairly equal, what one gives up to another, it also takes back in another aspect. I personally only have Maxx's since they were always my favorite due to weight and handling characteristics since I primarily only race. If I wanted to bash though, I think I might go with a Savage and gear it way down and climb everything with it.
