So here I am, "Mr. Never go nitro" thinking I want a nitro monster truck. Many of you have or had a Tmaxx before, so what do you think of the "new" version? Worthy changes or would I be better off looking at a used or new old version and upgrading. Alternatively, give me reasons to continue my no-nitro stance and save some money.

That's pretty cool, don't listen to Tom, nitro is fun.

I love mine now that I'm getting better at tuning.

After doing a bit of reading further, looks like the new model will be cheaper retail price than the current version. With a discount code Tower is doing pre-orders at $360 + shipping. ahhh crap  Grin

I never really cared for nitro that much until that bash session out in Monroe. All those nitros going around, smoke and dirt in the air.. kinda changed me.

Do it, do it...nitro smells good.

I haven't gotten the Savage out yet, been waiting for warmer weather to do the break in. I wanted the break in to go as well as possible and I had my daily basher, Revo 2.5, to run while it was still cold. Look for the Savage at a bash soon though, days are good right now for a break in, just need to find the time.

All kidding aside, it looks like a cool truck with some of the problems addressed, it's basically a Revo spec T-Maxx. I have something else in mind at the momnt, or I'd be seriously considering one. The 3.3 is a good motor if you pull it out and seal it before you run it, but we can help you with that, it's easy. Bill has like 8 gallons through one of his, it just won't quit. Anyway, I like it a lot, nitro is messy and more work than electric, but there's something very cool about a nitro powered tiny 2 stroke motor.
