exatly! I mean BPP is a very small company, they just wouldn't have the dollar to put in the initial money to get a variety of replacment parts. What good is any truck if you can't fix it? And this truck isn't indestructable. It would also take a long long time before bpp or someone else makes an upgrade part for them. At 600-700 mrsp, it's just to deep for me. BTW, i like a 2 speed tranny at times!

No replacment parts is one of the main reason those radio shack r/c's are not popular.
