Haha I hear ya - Savage really doesn't need much though

Well some of these newer MT's are actually more like a truggy - so if you want to go flat pan chassis and center diff then there are a lot of options out there that might have better parts support and overall better quality, like MBX5T, MBX6T, 8ight T 1.0 and 2.0, RC8T, etc...all have brushless conversions available, can be found in used roller form pretty cheap, and can be fitted with MT sized wheels/tires.

All depends on if you want a custom build or something ready to go out of the box.
