well what are you gonna do with it. if your gonna bash then you can get savage. but im not gonna gurantee you wont be workin on it alot. and the chasis are so hard to fit your hands inside a smal little area. or you can get a revo and not work on it! but the revo is a race truck so if your gonna race then revo for sure but revos are great bashers to they hold up to anything you dish out so id say revo. LMK. if this helped.

dude if your a begginer then definitly get a savage , since it's your first , the savage can take a beating alot MORE of a beating that a revo Ccan take, but the revo is more of a light basher racer, the savage is an offroading basher. i'd definitly get a savage cuz for a beginner u don't have to worrie about broken parts cuz the savage it tough

I was just wondering, it just seems like you have no in depth knowledge of anything and just like to annoy people and throw around foul language, that's all.

hey guys thanks but id like to know exactly what is good about it like my friend says that every thing is burried and hard to get to on the savage like he says to get to the drivetrain you have to completley take of the two side chasiss plates but the revo everything is on the surface and easily accessable. just like a little more input thanks

it doesn't matter with the savage uz nothing really braeks on it and just in case if u have to go and assces the drive train u don't have to take the chassis off. u can take the front or back end off very easy. just don't get it cuz u have to work on it more. u have to work on it any way. but all i'm suggesting for the first monster truck is a savage. you'll be happy parts hardly braek it a tough truck. parts r very easy to get and also the customer service is AWSOME. u get a 2 year warenty. just the other day on my starter that i already had for a year and a couple of months, one of the gears stripped on me, i called the com[any and they said sure we'll send u over a new set of gears. didn't even ask me for proof of perchase or nuthin.

u could make the savage sit low easily just take out the shock spacer and then it will handle betterbut...

revo=racer

I dont have a savage so im not going to say anything about it but i do have a revo and i bash, not hardcore but i launch it off stuff pretty often and i havent broken anything stock yet.
ive onyl broken parts i put on there, which are usualy weak aluminum or somthing, (dont buy integy lol) only lifetime warrenty stuff (rpm ect...)
the revo is farly ez to work on.
but like everyone else said, if your going to bash then get a savvage cuz there good stock, if you wana race then get the revo, and if you put some upgrades on the revo like rpm a arms and stuff then it can handle almost anything.
