how about, leave the subject alone, who cares, get what you like, if you wanna race, get a revo, if you want to bash, get a savage. If you wanna race with a savage you have to put alot of money into it, if you want to bash with a revo you have to put alot of money into it. There is too many things to go wrong bashing revos, and savages weigh alot. And i set up the hahaha thread for this converstation, talk on there, if one more thread lk this is set up im gonna go crazy!!!
See... this is what keeps this conversation going... Savage guys WILL NOT acknowledge that the Revo is a good basher... I've proven that the Revo can bash with my videos. The Revo is a great basher.. and doesn't need a bunch of hopups...

OK my turn.To me any rc is a good rc,I own a savage and have put a whole lotta money into it and enjoyed doing it.I like revo,jato,lsts,schumacher menace(my list could go on)And as far as parts breaking it could happen on any rc at anytime no matter what you do.The biggest thing for that respect is proper maintenance on the vehicle but even with that stuff can still break thats part of owning a rc.So if people are going to complain about stuff breaking get into another hobby because it is going to happen no matter what.

That's a good point trhat needs to be made often. Especially to newbies wanting to buy their first "right" truck. They need to quit worrying about breaking things because things ARE GONNA BREAK!!!!!!!!!!

Well I saw a bashing video, and the Revo broke after 1 tiny long jump. My Savage has survived worse crashes than that. I'm not basing my entire opinion on that, as I saw how a Revo survived a 100 foot back flip, and didn't seem to break anything

I say to each his/her own, and leave it at that

FINALLY! LOL... I agree with that... to each his/her own... you like the Savage... I like the Revo... they both make great bashing trucks... and we're both happy.

Rather than all sounding like pre-pubescient children in the school yard "my daddy's car is better than your daddy's car 'cause" lets get back to the real reason we all bought our MT's in the first place...TO ENJOY THEM!!!!
Who really cares what truck goes faster/ handles better on the track unless your actually going to race, the same goes for which truck holds up best to rough landings unless your into bashing.
Whats the next argument going to be? The hellfire is better than....
All these trucks have their good and bad points suited to the conditions they are used.
Sure I own a couple of savages but I like/hate all truck equally (a motto I soon learned working on real cars & planes- no matter what they cost they're all still going to break down).
