I gotta say Traxxas always or 90% of the time releases products that are completely original and one of kind designs that seems to always keep the market of R/C's evolved around them. I mean how many bootleg Maxx trucks have you seen by other companies? But what gets me is how they keep calling their trucks (Monster Trucks) for once in their history they should take an actual step in producing a solid axle truck or something they can really say is a MT cause for as long as they've been around it has always been truggies & buggies, and a few street cars/trucks. HPI, Tamiya, Axial, all are doing up solid axle trucks and to not see Traxxas make a move yet on such a thing is a bit of a bummer.
