RE: New to RC Trucks
i would suggest a T-Maxx. i just got mine last week and it's my first nitro ever and i love it. very good support, very easy to work on and fix and tons and tons of hopups available. right out of the box it's already a beast so you don't have to spend extra money for performance parts. and as far as i know i don't think the savage has reverse, which can be very handy for backyard bashing. just my opinion but i'd go for the T-Maxx.
