E-Maxx all the way, not much on electric but I would say it would be good for bashing...

I would say the stampede. The e-maxx is bigger but will probably break easier. Stampede will be harder to break.

I am not too sure though.

Try looking into an E-zilla. I've heard that they are a lot tougher and faster than an E-maxx.

The E-Maxx is a money pit. I've had them both and still have a Pede. The Stampede is much stronger and can be modified for less.

I havent heard too many good things about the emaxx in terms of durability until the whole thing is aluminum and thats not exactly cheap. By that price you can have an aluminum pede with a brushless system and a nice radio with digital servos.[&:]

The pede is wayy more durable from what I have heard from users of both vehicles.

emaxx all the way! true it is expensive to upgrade when not buying aluminum crap but throw in a novak brushless or some other motor system and it will fly! it is really durable and I've jumped mine 25 feet high and nothing happened, drove it in the snow, rolled it a lot, crashed into trees lol ... it can take it and comeback wanting for more! from what I've heard the stampede is just a slow rustler that can pull wheelies. for my emaxx I haven't even thought of buying any aluminum parts just performance and durability is not an issue. As for the ezilla I dont know it hasn't got any reviews and I dont know of anyone who owns one, but it might be good?
