I have narrowed that down to the lack of a center diff. The muggy is pretty much identical to the lst in the suspension dept. The lst chassis is stronger. And i like the layout of my lst better than the muggy, a bit more weight up front which suits my driving style better. Plus the higher cg makes driving more interesting.
I will say that I have never liked truggies, and the muggy is the only one out of about 6-8 truggies that I have owned that i will keep. Truggies may be good for racing but i only bash and they are a bit boring to me. I like an 1/8 buggy, but that feels completely different to a truggy.
The center diff makes wheelies a little harder to control, and I do not like in flight control as much with the cd. Plus braking is better IMO without the cd. Steering is not as good, but my bash area is not too tight, and I can always drift on power or brakes to turn a bit tighter.
I still like the muggy, and currently it is assembled so it gets played with more often.
