That price listed is the price before Tower has actually received it. Usually the price decreases when Tower actually gets that type of thing in stock.

Well, I'm feeling pretty good right now. I FIXED the glitching problem! With night driving I could only see the truck so far, but at about 150ft there was not a hint of glitching. Turns out the UBEC ($15 generic one from XUS Hobby) was the culprit - as soon as I put a receiver pack on the truck, the range increased. However, I would much prefer to use a UBEC, so we'll see what I can do about that.

For now, this means I can spend my money on things other than a new radio. Like a couple Mamba Max ESCs :).
And since I just ran into a pretty decent amount of money, I will be getting two Mamba Max ESCs to share with my 6 other cars that do/will use them. Another Dewalt 36v pack is on its way, so I can make another battery setup for the Revo (since the X-terminator and Revo share the same battery).
Then, to charge the extra 5s2p A123 pack, I'm going to get a new charger. Right now I'm looking at the Hyperion 1210i and LBA10 combo for $182. But I can get an AF109 for $90, and AF is soon going to be releasing an updated charger to charge A123 cells, so I might wait for that instead of getting the Hyperion. Tough decision if you ask me!

Anyways, here are the long-awaited pics, as well as my freshly painted body (Crowd Pleazer 2.0 for MGT/LST, didn't have one for the Revo 3.3):
