RE: Stampede vs. Rustler (or another good cheap truck)
Rustler is not a cheap car its the most durable electric st on the market. It may not have the features and adjustments of some of the more advanced cars but it is the best basher on the market. A Savage is pretty basic, heavy, a tank, doesn't have alot of adjustments but thats not considered cheap its considered the best bashing truck on the market.
I almost bought myself a Stampede over a MF2. Only reason i went with the MF2 is because i found a good trade for one if i would have found a brushless Stampede with a decent radio i probly would have got that instead. A Rustler/Stampede is a way better truck than the MF2 ever could dream of being, in its own category.
