Because IMO MTs are extremely boring. They are considered toys at my track whenever someone brings a savage or t-maxx/revo to the track. They always break and handle horribly. You already have a MT, why get another one?
So, even though the buggy isnt as much fun to drive for me, does horrible in grass where i normally drive, and wont even begin to handle some places i drive, I should have kept it?
MT's are MUCH more fun for me. They wheelie, they do donuts, they jump awesome, they go great in grass, and they do great on hills, mud, rocks, and whatever else you can find. A buggy needs a groomed surface to run its best. My buggy was a blast in smooth loose dirt, but I have much more grass and rutted dirt than anything, and the buggy is not well suited for that.
Why have 2 MT's? Well, both of them are different. They both handle much different, they are made completely different, and the drivetrain setups are much different. When one is down, I still have another MT to drive. Its no fun to run a buggy in the grass when your buddys are running MT's.
How could you possibly consider an MT a toy? You dont bash, so you obviously dont know where im coming from in my views. Why would i have traded the buggy for another MT if i thought the buggy was going to be much more fun and durable? If i had plans to race, I would have kept the buggy, but i dont.
A buggy has its place, and its at the track. I had a lot of fun with mine on small dirt jumps, and in loose dirt, but the MT makes more sense for where i normally run, and it is more fun for me to drive so i traded. Im not sure why you are bothered by it?
