Default Are trucks fun?

Are the xmods trucks fun. I'm a car guy but I thought it might be cool to have a truck. I bought the F-150 cuz it's on sale and I didn't want to regret it when it's gone and then you can only get them online for like $80 (we shall ever be seperated dear red supra xmod...) So anyway, I'm debating wether to keep it or not, I've got 5 xmods plus 2 bodies and now this and when people started talking about collecting xmods, I realized that I am a collector or at least I have a collection, so then I was like, "Oh no, the F-150 is going away and I never got one." (you know, cuz I'm a collector and all) so I went and bought it, uh... sort of bought it because I used my RS credit card and so that's why I'm thinking of taking it back, because what's more important, getting out of debt or collecting xmods? Feel free to answer that question, hmm maybe I should do a poll... or I could do a poll about if you would vote on a poll about that? Oh yeah, and I can get the blue body top for $5 on clearance right now, but would I go lifted or lowered? wich is better (I could do a poll on that too) Cuz now I'd need to buy the 4 wheel drive kit and the off road kit and everything, hmm I still have $100 dollars credit (money to borrow) what this, pro-pulse? Hmmmm.....

I'm just thinking, the only place I can drive my cars is in the kitchen, but a truck could go all over. We've got thick carpet, cars don't go.

tC wheels (they're slightly larger than the others) and 4WD. If your carpet is really thick, then a truck w/ lift should offer you quite a bit of fun!

when they offer the pro-pulse for 50% off, why would you NOT buy it?!? Just wait for the sale. I assume you can change the motors, servos, rx and tx, etc on the pro-pulse. I always wanted a 1/18 hobby-grade car and almost purchased a few different ones over the years...

Oh, and to answer the original question... yes!!! buy a truck. they are fun, and you can do different things with them, like go offroading...

I don't know... Its a personal opinion. Since I own Team Associated products, I wouldn't buy it due to brand loyalty and the bastardization of their products. I hope bastardization is a word

trucks are great. I have 1 orange F-150 and 2 blue f-150s. My best one has AWD, bearings, PN FS motor, and slammed wheels. But in the long run, its all personal preference. What ever gives you the most plesure.

lol, no... I don't own Team Associated. But I do own products manufactured by them. Specifically, a 1:10 electric buggy called the RC10B4

I'm actually considering their brand new 1:8 nitro buggy, the RC8. The one that they build to stay competitive with Team Losi's 1:8 nitro buggy, the 8ight.

I've always been a fan of Team Associated's RC10B2 buggy. The buggy whic hthe RC10B4 'Stealth' was derrived from. Their RC10B3 was nice, but the B4 is amazing!
