Need help picking a truck

[Bigmoo22]

Ive been looking for a 4wd electric under 150$ monster truck. the two that i have seen are the hpi rs4mt and the tamiya wild dagger. and i really cannot decide. and just wondering would the hpi (who i know are very performance oreinted) give me near a t3 basic truck performance? PLEASE RESPOND

get the stampede its big and fast, durable and fun its a great truck i traded mine but i wish i still had it has a whole bunch of hop ups u can throw in it and also its great for project trucks if u ever wanna make it bugger lol cya

Don't get the dagger, it is really slow, and it comes with a mechanical speed control, two lousy motors, and lots of things you will have to upgrade. You should also look for reviews for those trucks on the internet. ;) ;) ;)

Stampede, hands down. Very fast, durable, cheap, not 4wd but it seems like it, lots of hop ups available, etc. If you want, after a while you can make it 4wd but it costs some :D

had a stampede once and it was great but it was just not what i was looking for. i want something that will be able to do clodbuster tasks on a budget or rc10 performance with 4x4. The stampede was somewhere in the middle a great truck though

i would get the hpi the wild dagger cant have its gears changed it needs new shocks there not even oil filled it has stuff thats trash msc and those crap motors go with the hpi its not that much of a monster truck its more of a large statium truck

NO dont get the Stampeed. at least thats my oppion, Get the dagger, it is 4X4 and it is easly upgraded with stuff likeclod tires and so on. get the dagger!
tony :cool:

Does it have to be a truck? Does it have to be electric? If not IForgot has a 4wd Tamiya Blazing Star for sale as an RTR and it is priced to move. In fact you could get everything (Buggy, charger, radio, and battery) for $150.
Just thought I'd let you know.
Also there is the Blackfoot and Dirt thrasher from Tamiya. I have a simular thread in the Electric forum.
