First welcome.

Cen MT2 is a great truck, I have one and love it.

If you are looking for hop-ups then go with the Savage. I have been impressed with them and how good they are.

But dont get me wrong the MT2 is a great truck but like you there is no store that has CEN around me. It makes it hard when you need small parts that you have to wait a week to get and pay for shipping.

I hope that help you make a smart choice.
