Both great trucks, really depends on which you prefer and what type of driving you plan on doing.


Savage is a little tougher on 6S, especially the drive train.
But they'll both take around the same abuse on 4S.

So if you plan on running 6S i'd take the Savage.

On 4S i prefer the ERevo simply because it handles so much better and is a LOT easier to work on than the Savage.

The manuals and instructions on HPI products are exceptional, with the Traxxas cars you get the impression that they put together only what the need and nothing else.

So if you plan on running 6S on really rough terrain i'd opt for the Savage.
On 4S just for usual type bashing i'd opt for the ERevo, as on 6S it eats diffs, driveshafts etc.
