My first impression is that thing weighs a ton and there is no way in hell that will wheelie with the HPI .21bb in it. It might not wheelie with alot of other motors as well. Also, you might want to take into consideration that it wont be any good for bashing. An all aluminum truck hitting ANY fixed object like a tree or curb will bend into a pretzel and require MUCH repair, the stock plastic parts allow for alot for flex and can take a real beating, aluminum stuff is initially stronger but still bends pretty easy and it cant "snap back" Make sure you get a real good deal on it. Are those stock Savage wheels and tires as well?
