Default NT48, D8T Tessman, MBX7T?

I wasn't going to do this but looking for non biased advise on what will be my new Truggy! I'm having a hard time deciding, coming from a RC8T CE that's way overdue for retirement but loved it! I currently run the MBX7 buggy. From my understanding on reading the forums....
NT48= very durable
D8T Tess= aluminum F/R hubs nice!
MBX7T= it's a Mugen!

Could take into account the 7t and 7 has a lot of interchangable parts, which can be very handy at times.
Can't commenr on the other trucks but the 7t is awesome to drive, very fast truck, personally had near no breakages since its release.

My vote is for the Tekno. Stable, easy to drive and better corner speed than any other truggy on the market.

With Ryan Lutz onboard. That should be changing. Shoot, ever since he signed with Tekno, he has been dominating each event he has entered. Can't wait till DNC to see how he does with most of the top drivers there.

You should also take a look at the sworkz s350T. Great quality, durability, and performance. People with mbx7t truggies are even putting s350T parts on them.

I was checking them out too, they also look good. I don't know if I want to stay with pillow-ball or go back to a C-Hub type

Well there are some companies that are switching from the c-hub to pillow ball so that's got to say something.

Yes associated and also if you go look at the thread Will Durango release a new buggy for 2015 thread there is a picture of the new dnx8 and it looks like it has pillow balls as well.
