The truck is not due out for 2-3 more weeks. The T-Maxx and Terra Crusher are both great trucks. The crusher is bigger and has a slightly bigger engine (.18 vs .15). It also has some other advancements over the maxx. The Maxx has been out longer and there are a ton of hop ups for it, if that interests you. It will take some time for the aftermarket support for the crusher to get where it is now for the maxx.

They are priced about the same, so i went with the crusher,

Thanks for the input. I neighbor of mine has the T Maxx and that thing is awesome, but it this one is better, I may just hold out!

The terra crusher does come with 2speed like the tmaxx,reverse, and uses an electrical starting system. Whats better is the handling. STock the terra crusher wont flip like a tmaxx will in turning. For now go with the tmaxx since parts are available.
