rustyguy... My wife got me a nitro evader for christmas and it is pretty awsome. I had a couple of problems with a couple of broken parts, but i think it was mainly because i was driving it in like 30 degree weather. I actually took the truck out this weekend and jumped the crap out of it. I had four huge crashes and i kept waiting for the thing to break, but it never did. The evader is definitely a much stronger than i first thought. It's a great truck for a smaller price tag.
