I think you would have to admit that you are not surprized with these findings, are you?
Look we all have a choice when we get into this sport. You can either play with the RTR out of the box vehicle and repair/replace parts as you go, or you can upgrade your vehicle to the point where at the very least you can bash or race without having to worry about breaking something on every run
. So when you start into the upgrade process with these beasts you have to know that it will not stop at just a few hundred $$$
. In fact from various testimonials on this stie and many others the evidence shows that if you want a really strong truck that will hold up for you in the extremes of off roading, then you will spend somewhere between $1K & $2K
. No matter what vehicle model you start with the costs will be considerable. That is just the nature of the hobby.
None of us really likes spending the amount of money that we do, but we are all on a quest to build the ultimate RC vehicle that will turn heads because of the efforts that we put into them, and we are dammed proud of our work. That is the real joy
.
So do what you have to do and reap the rewards of your work and the money that you have and will spend in order to meet your own requirements. Have fun not jsut with runing your truck, but in doing the build as well.
