It just didn't really fire me up that much.
How do you think the Exo would fit into this range? What about an e-revo?
My thought is that the E-Revo would be the top, then the 4X4 Slash, then the Exo... IF this is the case, how far back would you rate the Exo? (Exo RTR that much worse than the kit?)
You have the right order for those 3 but there are many other rigs out there that would be better than the Revo or Slash. The MT4 has a great reputation as a reliable basher and most of the cars and trucks built on a 1/8 buggy chassis are pretty stout. I still have a Slash 4x4 that accumulates more dust on the shelf than it does outside. It isn't broken by any means but I just haven't had the desire to run it. I sold off my Exo and was extremely happy to close that chapter of my life.
