Default Need help deciding Avalanch or Hurricane!

Ok. I am almost to a point were I have enough money to buy me another nitro. This time a 1/8 scale. I was wondering which one out of the two are good the hurricane XP PRO or the Avalanch. Just need some input before I buy again. Since when I bought my Volcano SV on ebay and did more research I found the Volcano SV PRO!! Which got me angry. Anyways I would apprciate any input.

the hurricane is fast and handles well and jumps great, not really good for tall grass and loose sand, dirt, the avalance is truck and good for all terrains, not as fast or as stable as the avalance, it really depends on what you want to do, they are both good.

here's a good way to put it: do you want a porsche 911 or a hummer h1, they are both good just different

Get an Avalanche. I have one and believe me they can really move. Also the handling is really cool and it's actually really hard to roll them on soft ground. [8D]

Get a Monsoon! Off-road performance will be very close to the avalanche, but you won't flip over when turning too hard on road. You get the cornering abilities from the Hurricane and the offroad capabilities of the Avalanche. The Monsoon is great!! Again, you have the option of a Porsche, a Hummer, or a nice WRX STI, good for road and offroad, all year long!

Ok. Now I have made my decision. It will be the Hurricane XP pro because I like shinny aluminum parts. Thank you all for your $0.02.
