Your favorite and least favorite companies?
I would like to hear honest answers please
XTM would be my favorite company. Ive had so little problems with their products its ridiculous.
Only one company comes to mind for least favorite... Traxxas. I posted on some forums, asking what would be a good electric begginers rc. Everyones saying E-maxx. So i went down to my LHS the next week and test drove a e-maxx, thought it was ok and bought one. The first day of driving it I had problems. Breaking parts every run. I just got so tired of it, that I sold it for a little over half of what I paid to get it running. I did buy a stampede after that off ebay for $50. I havent had any problems with the Pede since I bought it, a really fun truck to drive.

I dont think asking people to bash other peoples vehicle brands is a good idea. This thread will deteriorate quickly.

My favorite Brand of cars is torn between Duratrax and HPI. My least favorite company is Tamiya, no offense to those people who have them, I just dont like their style of cars.

At the moment AE is probobly my favorite.
I wont bother saying my least favorite, thats just something to get everyone pissed off.

RE: Your favorite and least favorite companies?
I have alot of favorities - Golden horizons is sweet, it has great aluminum stuff, and it's canadian. yay. apart from that theres dynamite HPI, Duratrax, orion, losi, actually there aren't really any companies that I don't like, (although traxxas is borderline) apart from smartech, but it's not a hobby grade company anyways.
