Dude, the SC8 then. Far superior basher to a truggy. A slash or SC10 its NOT. In fact its actually an RC8T with RC8 arms, a SC body, full roll cage, SC tires. Its 4x4 and its a rocketship. Its my secondary basher, and it is a complete blast to drive and is a BEAST, super rugged. You can get em for around $440 shipped:

+ YouTube Video

PS: I know you haven't had an LST XXL, your typical MT its not, it handles like a race truggy, but its ALOT more durable. You should wait to see my XXL build up thread. You would swear its a truggy...........on MASSIVE HORSE STEROIDS.
