Default What I have learned

So many of you are always asking for advice on what ________(insert buggy/truggy) to buy. It seems that everyone has their favorites; however, it seems that a few things are always evident: Most vehicles are similar in basic design.

When making my decision on what to buy, I consider the simplest of rules: will I have to use aftermarket parts or even another manufacturers parts to make my vehicle competitive (think non-club racing as a non-pro)?

What stands out to me is that there are maybe two manufacturers that require no outside support: Xray and Mugen.

It seems that every other manufacturer requires using a tank from another vehicle here and there (ie Durango), drive shafts (ie Kyosho,JQ) etc...

Thoughts? (please stay to the facts and keep biased opinions out please)
