I agree with you. I only broke one thing on my Rustler VXL and that was because the curb came out of nowhere and I had to replace a wheelie bar.

I purchased a used rusty and the only thing I have ever broke on it was due to my ignorance. I have no complaints on my rusty to this point.

i had a slash and it took a beating, but i did break a front upright, blew a shock cap off the shock, bent two (inner and outer) hing pins, but once you up grade to every rpm product they make they are tough
although i hit a curb with a brushless, and 3 cell li-po -lol
i am posting this here , because they are the same truck minuse pumpers, and chassis.

I have a nitro rustler with a 3.3 traxas motor with every integy hop up they make.Im a machinest so I made my own spool and new rear a arm mount to get rid of the toe in on the rear.all I can say is its a hand full.I own 2 t maxx an e maxx and a couple other cars,trucks and buggys.I love my rustler.I have a lot of money in it.If I had to do it all over I would not change a thing.http://www.rcjunkyard.com/forums/images/icons/icon6.gif
