the savage shouldn't even be mentioned together with the other two

hehe just kidding

(I can see the savage owners going wild)

LST best choice for you
4-speed
awesome speed AND handling
boy those 4 huge shocks can really soak up the bumps
roto start included
fm radio...

the arms are somewhat weak but RPM makes awesome upgrades

Revo is also a good choice
but the engine is a little limiting...
so if you want something that can go flat out fast too
you'd have to upgrade the revo's engine...

From a design standpoint, the Savage appears to be much better built?

go the revo , not real fast standard , but being a 1/10 truck its is a little smaller and lighter than 1/8 lst and savage .. , revo underpowered = easy upgrade just replace the motor with a big block .21-.26 .27 etc
got a new picco .27 coming for my truck .. running a .26 atm .. cant wait to see how it goes with .27

anything u choice .. will be great im sure .. but revo or savage prob better options . heaps more hop-up and spare parts around for both those trucks

i have owned two savages and for bashing they cant be beat,the revo is a very close second everything ive seen so far has impressed me. the lst is a great basher if you like to work on it...all the time....lol .
i have one that i race and yes it is fragile when it comes to taking a good whack never broke an arm but i did plenty of axles and hubs and tie rods.if you want speed hands down the lst it will just amaze you how fast it is with the stock motor and it jumps like it has wings.

if you go with any of the above yo cant go wrong
