I don ' t know what it ' s going to cost yet but whatever it is i ' m sure it will be a fair price for everything you get in it . I can ' t wait for it to get here I work at a Hobby shop so as soon as it comes in one is going home with me . If i had to guess I would say it ' s going to be between $ 350 . 00 and $ 450 . 00

No way not 350 to 450 the T - maxx is like 379 . 00 at most hobby shops the e - maxx will probably be like 200 to 250 .

your dreaming dude the RTR stampede runs from $ 160 . 00 to $ 200 . 00 either mailorder or at a lhs . so the E - maxx with it ' s twin 550 motors special ESC 3channle radio and 4wd will be much more . I would freak if it sold for as low as $ 200 . 00 I would get 2 or 3 of them but i ' ll stick with between $ 350 . 00 and $ 450 . 00 as my guess

I dont think the electric version will exceed the price of the Nitro one . I think the E - Maxx will be between $ 300 and $ 350 , probably the higher of the two . A RTR Stampede is bout $ 150 .

I dont think it will be more than it ' s nitro brother I have yet to see a example of twin trucks where the electric is more expensive than the nito , I dont think this will be any diffrent , The electric will be about $ 50 cheaper .

yeah prob around $300.00 but the other twinmonsters out there don't come with a ESC made for high power or full bearings neither do the stampede or rustler. thats why i'm saying between 350.00 and 450.00 the later will be at hobby town USA LOL i went into one sat. and they want 245.00 for the RTR stampede can you belive it LOL.

FINAL WORD IN!!! THE E-MAXX WILL BE IN EARLY NOVEMBER. Yes I know some of you know this but if you look closely at this advertisement "We couldnt find any competition for the T-Maxx, so we built it" it sais November. And people to the site we found this off of-the word got around, sorry for ME stealing it because someone else posted the site address on RCCA.

hpiguy the traxxas sledgehammer RTR which is a 2wd monster truck sells for 200.00 and it doesn't have full bearings, tiwn 550motors, high power esc, 4wd, 2speed gearbox, 3channel radio system, or the suspention system of the E-Maxx I wish you were right but I know your wrong I still say between $350.00 and $450.00 which I think will be a fair price for the new king of the 4wd monsters the E-MAXX.

It does have competition, just they will be out ran, ran over and pulled along behind the KING E-MAXX. I say following suit the NRustler costs $325- ERustler (protraxx) $225, NStampede $335- EStampede (protraxx) $235, T-Maxx $379- EMaxx -------$279--------
That's my bet.......

Is the E-Maxx really 4wd? Isnt the T-Maxx 2WD, which makes the E-Maxx 2WD

i wouldnt be a bit surprized if the price of the e pede and rustler dropped and the e maxx was about 60-90 dollars cheaper than nitro

JP-the T-MAXX is 4WD, and from what i've heard the E-MAXX is most likely gonna be 4d tooim with IMPACTPLAYR, all the electrics are 100 less than nitro,so the E-MAXX is probly gonna be around $275-300 i say

I am HPIGUY and I never posted anything about this subject.

You are referring to HIGHGUY31. He is the one who is wrong.

Double check that stuff before you post.

the tamiya jug2 sells for $350.00 with stock junk RS540 motors, no ESC and no bearings,or oil filled shocks, no radio

the clodbuster sells for $209.00 with stock RS540 motors, no ESC, no bearings, and no oil filled shocks, no radio

no on the E-Maxx you will get better motors full bearings, highpower ESC, 3 channel Radio system,and 8 oil filled shocks,

so i still say that $450.00 is more than a fair price for this truck.

because if you go with one of the other monster trucks and add all the E-maxx will come with it will be more than that.
