T-Maxx and Savage are great Trucks, parts are available everywhere, and alot of people run them so it is easy to find friends. Personally I Like the Savage, and Nitro Mag and RC Car mag reviewed it in the last 2 months, and both gave it "MOST Reliable" rating.

The GT Plus is a great truck. It isn't hard to tune properly and is a good durable truck. The transmission is very solid and doesn't require alot of mantenance. However, now I own the Nitro Rustler 2.5 and that truck is unbelievable. It comes ready to run so you're set to go for under $300. It also has the Traxxas 2.5 engine that has 60% more power than the .15 engine that has the electric easy start so you don't have to worry about the pull start. The truck goes 47 mph out of the box. It is very durable maintenance free truck. Whichever you decide you won't be disappointed.

Very good review...
This is what it looks like, you might get lucky and find an issue still on the rack.. March Just came out, but I saw this at my LHS this weekend.
