I have seen more powerful, solid and durable other trucks then the
t-maxx for almost the same price. But the t-maxx is still owned by the
majority of RC people, plus you need to put at least $300 extra to the
original price to make it reliable a little.

Anybody knows why?

Why dose Bose sell so many speakers/stereo's? They don't sound the
best. They cost a ton.

Marketing.

Bose actually tricks people into thinking they sound great because their
sound is different. They have lots of bass and good highs but tend to
have nothing between. The people with $$ that Bose markets to only wants
things to look nice and don't really know what a good Audio System
should sound like.

Maybe it's the same sorta thing with Traxxass?

There are 10 types of people in this world; those who understand the
binary numbering system and those who don't.

There's no place like 127.0.0.1.

ASCII a silly question, get a silly ANSI.

Another thing is, and you can dispute this all you want, Traxxas does
offer good customer service. They have the best web site bar none when
it comes to manuals, information, forums, etc. Now, if the made there
trucks more durable.....
