"REVO" in the Dictionary

[Diabolical 4X4]

I thought about the REVO so much today that I decided to look it up in the dictionary. It isn't in there. It's a cool enough name, but I wonder why Traxxas picked it. Sounds French

No jokes, OK. This is a better thread idea than some of the stuff I have seen on here.

lol, you notice its Over, spelled backwards? They probably took a common word and reversed the spelling. Or maybe its an acronym.

i think they call it the revo because its "revolutionary" or somthing

I agree with your comment:

"i think they call it the revo because its "revolutionary" or somthing".

But that could change the pronounciation from Ree-Vo (which is what we think it is) to Rev-O.

I know this was semi-addressed in another thread but can we the official word FROM TRAXXAS on the pronounciation and meaning (if any).

I like the new name, it may also mean it is Over for the competion LOL!!!

[TraxxasJedi]

REVO in my opinion, means that someone ad a revelation! and It totally fits the Truck!I mean that thing is soooooooooooooooooooooooo awsome!!!!!!!!! It's going to REVO-lutionize the R/C World!:D :D

[TheoThonio]

I'll drink to the REVOlutionary theory.

[HolmWrecker]

So, if there is an electric version (total speculation on my part), then will they call it the Revolt? Sounds tacky once i see it typed.:D

I like the Revo name, fits it very well indeed.:)

Or the Evo. That would stand for evolution.

[bjoehandley]

Ya after reading this form i think that is the best sounding and it makes sense

[TheoThonio]

:lol::lol::lol: REVOLT :lol::lol::lol:

[motorpede]

I like Evo better for the electric version (if there is one!), Revolt is already being used by some "toy" manufacture. Revo Really Represents (hey cool 3 R's!) the truck, it's all new from the ground up!

[Trix]

and if they make an Electric Revo they deff need to name it Evo :D

[Haupia]

RACING EVOLUTION

[Maxx2.5Cruiser]

Ya! this will making racing so much cooler and fun!

[DieselNut]

Ok, after all the research traxxas claims to have spent on this Monster, why the name "Revo"?.... I would like to have seen a more meaner, intimidating and catchy name....when I hear the name "Revo"..I think of a auto car dealer like Hyundai, or Kia...oh well..my 2 cents.

[Ikester]

I agree it ain't the meanest name out there (you know they thought about calling the VRod the "Toaster"?
Anyway, we will probably look back in a year and wonder how they had such brilliance finding Revo. You know how things grow on you....:D
