Default Two trucks and a buggy, which one

Hey guys and gals, I've up and sold the Rusty with all the mods and such and was looking for a new truck or buggy and I have a couple questions.

Fist of all, there is a new-ish Duratrax truck, the EXT EP, it's dirt cheap, 119 bucks to be exact and it's an RTR. What makes it so different than the standard EP truck that costs 170? 50 dollars cheaper sure looks good, but I've had the buggy version of the regular EP (the BX) and it was trouble prone (the suspension was too soft, the rear kept smacking the ground shattering the motor magnets and no matter what I did, I couldn't keep it from happening).

Also, while my mouth is watering, I see that Tower has a 3-pay for a Associated B4RS Race-Spec RTR, OMG OMG OMG. I would love a dependable basher again, but I also like upgrading and changing out parts and such.

I love buggies, and I love stadium trucks. I love to work on them so that's no problem, no matter which one I get, it won't remain stock for long.

Any suggestions on the two trucks or the Associated buggy?
