Can you imagine her face when i've recieve my Maja SS last week......................................
David - Don't feel bad at all. When I bought an LST2 and it was delivered my gf at the time (wifey now for 2 weeks!!!!!!!) looked at it and asked if she could sit on it and I could drive her around our apartment.

When I bought the E-Revo she came into the rc store with me and her jaw was on the floor as I bought it.

Now - I bought a 2250/12 LMT from a guy on the forum and when I hold it in my hand I envision the MCD 1/5 scale MCD 4WD buggy RaceRunner I am going to buy once we move out of downtown Boston into the CT burbs (all awaiting a long coming job transfer).

So as far as I am concerned - don't feel bad by the expression on the wife's face - we all have a weird obsession spending as much on toy cars as we have spent on a real car.

Can't wait to see the look on her face when I open up a box with a 25lb 2 foot long by 1 1/2 foot wide buggy in it and just smile from cheek to cheek!!! Face it - they know we're nuts - but better it be on RC cars that spending nights in some lame pub with da' guys or out cheatin' on em and stuff.
