I have to agree too. All trucks seem to have their own unique qualities. Also, once you start doing stuff to them and buying after market parts etc, even trucks of the same type/make/model vary considerably in the way they perform.

The LST's in our locality seem to have a good track performance. They certainly handle better than a stock RTR Savage .25, but seem prone to silly, minor niggles. I don't think I'd recommend an LST to newbie - it's better suited to people with some prior RC experience.

I've said this before, but TBH - I'd happily go out right now and buy at least another half a dozen trucks, including another Savage (4.6), LST, TNX, Revo, LSP, FG - if only I had limitless funds!

Credit cards make it far too easy to give into temptation......
