Default 1/10 4wd?

Is there any 1/10 4wd reputable trucks? All I can find is SC trucks which isn't what I want. I've been waiting for the savage XS for a while, but I want something now. Anybody know any RTR or rollers? I've seen some Redcat and Volcano branded ones, but I'm worried about quality and parts availability.

the volcano is OK, but not awsome. its kinda small for a 4wd truck honestly.
the redcat cladera 10e is much better. the parts on it are off a 1/8 scale chassis, thicker and much more durable. the truck on the stock nimh is decent, but put a 2s lipo and its a much better truck.

parts for redcats are always availible, just not at most hobby shops, you will have to order off an e-store or ebay. so that is a negitive.

the traxxas stampede 4x4 is an obvious choice, unless you budget doesnt allow it.

the thunder tiger looks nice, but can it handle brushless? i noticed it comes brushed. that would be too slow for me.

whats you budget?

im assuming $300 since you wanted the savage XS.

the thunder tiger XXT is a brushless 4wd for just over $300

you can find the stampede vxl 4x4 used for around $250-$300

Venom, the 10TT is an amazing little truck! I've raced it and bashed it and it's ben able to hold up to everything. And $200 aint nothing for a high performance kit

i suppose it wouldnt be to bad if you popped in a ezrun 60amp system and used a flysky 2.4ghz radio system. that would be just a hiar over $300 total.
