Yea dude, get the new t-maxx when it comes out. Hobby people should get them in about 1 month or so.

well for 400 you can get a Terra crusher... It comes with radio and everything.........only downside is that it needs a bigger engine....

if your talking about the pirate 10 it is not fragile.
Top speed of the AE GT is only 32mph, something to consider, although anything over 30 with a big truck is probably plenty fast if this is your first nitro truck.

Im not 100% sure but at the hobby show I overheard that AE MGT should be around $80 more than a maxx. This was not said to me directly.
Now given that I was told that the MGT goes 32-33 mph, seeing the long video they had,checking out the truck, and if it is 80 more than a maxx well I would have to GULP give the edge to the maxx.
Due to seeing this set-up of a maxx. I would take that $80 savings and get these tires/rims for the maxx VERY COOL
