$360 for an used E-Maxx (albeit only one month old) is not a bad price. They sell new for $290 plus any parts that you buy for it immediately depreciate at least 50% and the batteries are hard to sell cause they sell in such large quantities on ebay for next to nothing. I haven't seen too many E-maxx's going over that price on ebay very often. Most have an enormous amount of upgrades to boot. You have a nice looking truck there, if you are not getting what you want for it, I'd keep it until next year, put some more use on it and then take it in the pipe for $300+. Just don't destroy it.
Selling off the E parts to replace with T parts will cost you a pretty penny as well. Chassis (which I will give you if you want it)$10, motor $100, tranny $50, fuel tank $10 (I will give you that one too), exhaust(I got it too)$10 and a few other misc parts $20-$60. New motor and tranny will set you back at least $150+ and you'd be lucky to score that much off you old E parts to break even and still only be able to sell a T-maxx for $350, again if your lucky. New T's are selling like hotcakes on ebay for $360 in the box. Just be carefull not to get yourself in a tight spot where you are putting more money in trying to make more, and still selling it for a loss.
Simply put, sell the E and cut your losses early and enjoy your S-maxx.
