Default RUSTLER???????

If this is your first truck then you may want the convenience of the push start. Don't listen to everyone else in the other forums that say the 2.5 is hard to tune and tempermental. It's not. But the Ruslter is very quick for a begginer though. If you do get the ruslter get the aluminum shock towers immediatley and some 60 weight shock oil and aluminum shock caps. The plastic/graphite shock towers are ****!!! I also went from only 2 feet of air of a 1 foot ramp to airing over my car with the heavier shock oil.

Good luck
