Also I hear that losi parts are harder to get for some reason? and that AE plastic is soft and breaks easily,just a couple things i have heard,can i just get a few opinions on the cars and if anyone has had experience that will help me make a decision,i dont really care which one is "better" im just kind of looking for the one that will give me the least amount of issues in the long run thanks !!
I got back into racing back in December. I went with the 22 3.0 purely for the fact that is comes with more hopups and requires less setup out of the box, per reviews and buddies I race with at the track. I also wanted to not have the same car that 95% of the guys at my track have.

I love my TLR and I was usually a AE guy previously. The plastic on AE wears faster I've seen an heard, and Losi sometimes makes it too hard to get plastic pieces together.

In reality, you will have a great car to start with buying either brand. It's going to come down to your choice. '
