You should, it's a fun truck. It's light so you don't have some of the concerns you would with a relatively heavy full-size truck. Plus, the BL system is cheaper. It's been pretty durable. The only problem I had is with the Traxxas steel CVD set, which broke. Don't ask me how because I don't know - one minute I was going fine, the next I was doing doughnuts. The stock ones have held up better and longer. Go figure.

The only thing I may replace is the chassis for the 7075 version. I noticed that after a while the shell doesn't quite line up on mounts. I assume this is from the force of landing from jumps. I don't really have any room that lends itself for adding bracing, so the stiffer chassis should help. Even then, it's not bad.
