    I'm contemplating buying a new 4wd nitro MT. Don't really know the Losi, Cen, Carson, Ofna, etc range, but choosing between the Traxxas and HPI ranges, I'm leaning towards the Savage X 4.6 RTR.

    I'd like to hear your objective opinions (based on experience!) on any model out there.

    The revo is by a long shot the best MT out there. The savage is more of a bashing machine though. The revo is quicker and better equiped in and out of the box.

    MT trucks are better for bashing. There just for racing.

    Nope.

    and you know the best part?
    Spares are as cheap as chips. ;)

    IMO the Revo is not a true MT but more of a truggy instead, which I don't want.

    BTW have you seen the new Platinum Ed. Revo?

    Revo is not a Truggy.
    More of a racing stadium truck
    Go for the Hong nor and start racing.:D

    Yeah you have a point. Just go for the savage then.
    That platinum revo is limited edition.
