I'm wanting a stadium truck for bashing. Which is a tougher/stronger truck, the Rustler or the RC10T4/XXX-T (electrics)?
Looking at the chassis on various web sites, it looks like the Rustler is beefier, but I've never looked at these in person.
Thanks,
R.

I'll make it quick. I have both. The rustler does not perform/turn as well, but if you want a super bashing/jump truck, Definitely rustler. Just stock up on caster blocks. They are the only thign that breaks. The T4 is awesome, but i perform more, so i like it, but the rustler is easy to stick big tires, big shocks, and a better motor in to make a super jump truck. Like i said, casterblock only problem sometimes, and they are cheap/easy fix.

rustler is the same basic truck as the Stampede, so far i like my stampede a lot better than my rustler. rustler is just a little too low for me.
