The platform is 7 years old with a rumor of a new truggy on the horizon.
Yeah, I heard some noise about a new rig, but not in the waiting season right now. All the points seem very good, thank you. I think it's between Tekno, Serpent and Kyosho...maybe Xray too, know very little about their brand though so not sure about their parts support, aftermarket supplies, ease of build/maintainmence, durability, etc. Of course I'd like to pay the same price for a platform that has been updated within a few recent years, but if the Serpent really is up there hand and hand with all the top companies right now I see no reason to pass on it.
