    i dont know why it was sold, but i dont think its that big of deal, because at least it was sold to someone that already worked for them. its still kinda surprising tho.....

    The only difference you will notice is better products and service!

    If they are going to start making better products they should start by making the nitro vee with a water proof box and offering a free upgrade for people that already have a nitro vee and have to put up with it getting wet all of the time. They should also install an autobail on the nitro vee.

    The T-Maxx 2.5 is already better than the Savage IMHO

    I guess you didn't understand what I said... A kit T-Maxx would be awsome with a little more motor (same as trx2.5 except maybe they could punch that up to 3.0cc) with a few aftermarket parts like the big bores and a foc.

    It wont change much. It wasnt sold to a whole other corporation..The vice president bought it from the current owner. The new owner's father started Traxxas. So its nothing major. Service should be as good if not better now. I still think Traxxas is making a new truck! Its in the works.
