But the point being, RCDad wants a durable truck to BASH with. He's not going to be racing. The Savage is the more durable basher.
In the "Bashing videos" you mention, for the most part, listen to the engine, and the people filming and driving the trucks. They aren't controlling the throttle/brake to keep the truck level. In most of them, they are going WOT over the jump, never letting off the throttle, which will make any truck land wrong. The filmer and driver's are usually laughing. Why???? Because they just jumped a Savage 30 ft in the air, and it didn't break.
None of the truck mentioned deserved to be trashed that bad. They all have their good and bad points. Now, if the Choices were Savage, Revo, LST or Duratrax Thunderquake, I think anyone on these boards who has been around would say STAY away from the Duracrap.....
All 3 trucks RCDad mentioned are high quality trucks, and each have their good and bad points.
Sorry if it sounds like I'm being an @$$ that's not my intention.
