Where can I get one?
I prefer to buy in the US, but will do whatever it takes.
I have been looking for that WOW monster truck for quite some time now and I NEED a Giga crusher.
Also, what should I be prepared to pay?
Thanks for any/all information,
Bullethead

Hobbytown has them. My local Hobby Town has been trying to sell the single one they got in stock for 6 months now and it just sit's there on the shelf. I was telling the guy yesterday that i'd love to drive it once or twice, but I'd hate to own it and have to maintain and rebuild two engines.

Why? They're two mild big blocks, which are arguably the easiest engines to keep running in all of nitro r/c. Two high horsepower, race-bred engines would be a pain for sure...but the engines in that truck are designed to start and run...not make awesome power or pull 40,000 rpms.
My LHS also has one of these trucks in.
If you're looking for a place you could pick one up, trying calling Kyosho America directly. I don't know if they're willing to sell kits, but I know they've been selling people parts directly since most shops can't get them very quickly right now.

Have you seen howe many nitro RC's i have? Rebuilds are a pain enough without having to do them 2 per truck.

And if you know how to tune you almost never have to rebuild an engine. Retune maybe...rebuild? If you're concerned about that, you're doing something wrong.
That is absolutely absurd.
