LOL, what a joke. Ive 2 motors, both the 1.5s . One has 4 gallons, one has 5 1/4 gallons. The one with 4 gallons through it was rebuilt when it was in its 4th. It was my fault it blew so soon, I didnt run after run in it. Any motor, TRAXXAS or not can make it well over 5 gallons if taken proper care of. I know for a fact the TRX motors will last over 5.

I have the one with 5.25 gallons in a 6 year old Tmaxx that has never broken a single part except the oneway in the ez start.
