man some people need to chill out. i dont think im a terrible driver, i meant to drive into the pothole because it hasnt done a thing in the past, but like i8tweety said, it most likely was craced or stressed beforehand. the crashing into the wall thing was a result of bald tires and wet cement, i expected to slide a whole lot more than i did. the first time was when i was just learning to drive, and it was cold. additionally, my lhs seems to carry a sizeable collection of PLASTIC evader/duratrax parts behind the counter. and yes, the truck is cheap, its just a start. im hoping on getting an ebay savage soon. and i have quite enough moo-lah
