Default So Long Nemesis

So long guys, I got rid of my Nemesis. It seemed to be riddled with nothing but problems, maybe it was a Friday truck, I dunno. But anywho, maybe in the future I will buy another CEN, but until then I am going to stick with the Savage for bashing around. See all of you all around and thanks for everybit of the help I got on this forum.

Well blackrain you helped out the most, but after axle after axle, CEN did finally correct this for me, then came some engine leaning issues, got that fixed, then clutch shoes, took care of that, then came the gears. Now not all that happened in that order but it did happen. There was a clicking going on that I couldn't pin point, and the last straw was the CB stripping out. Well, so after a 100+dollars I am calling my losses and going with something I have yet to experience troubles with and when I do I have parts already on hand to fix rather than having to order online to fix. I thought I might hang in there but I didn't, it had to go, I loved it, it was an awesome truck, and it might have been just growing pains, but I am just moving on now.

Nah, the hundred bucks was just the axles for everytime I went out to run it, heck I can understand if it was something as far as neglet goes, but I was, that is until the new axles came out, dishing 49 bucks a run for the 2 axles that would break. Well CEN did resolve that for me, (thank you CEN)and then once I got them on that's when the CB gave out on it, that's what did me in. I got a good half gallon in on it, and combined over $200 in axles alone. I know the CB gears are only 10 bucks a piece, but I am devoting all the money saved towards one type of truck now. If I only own savages, then the upkeep will be easier, thus I ridded myself of a Nemesis, LST, and now trying to unload the onroad car. The Nemi and LST both traded for 2 savages, and I am trying to just get extra parts for the onroad car. This way I will only have to take care of 3 Savies instead of 4 different trucks. That gets too expensive, now I can just swap parts when one breaks to keep another running. Now I may have only gotten the growing pains out of the Nemi, if that's the case, then he got a very good and reliable truck, if not, his loss now. I liked it, just not that much. Maybe in the future I will tire again of the Savies and get a GST 4.6, until then I'm calling it.

Oh yeah, did I mention the clicking in my front diff? Yeah, I cringed at that thought after hearing how hard they are to get apart yet alone what the culprit was. Oh well, mine was high maintenence to me, far higher than the rest, now I have to change my signature. And I love that line too... If it aint broken your not bashing hard enough....But I never really got to bash it.[:@] Maybe sometime in the future.

Nah Bash keep the signature!!! You made a decision based on your experiences and needs...So you like the Savage better, so what, does not mean everything has to change. Thats why there are more than one choice in trucks, MGT, LST, Savage, Nemesis, Genesis, Ect.....Have fun with that truck!!! Oops, should have said "those" trucks since you have three now.

But you will HAVE to change your Avatar!!!

BTW, hope you got the price you wanted for it!!
