Default Anyone have a T-Maxx, Revo, or Jato truck?

This IS NOT a for sale thread (yet).
But I had to share my excitement.

The local toy/hobby shop in the mall here isn't carrying RC truck stuff anymore, and is liquidating their RC stock, so the other day I went in and bought a few parts I think I can use on my basketcase T-Maxx. Walking up to the register, I decided it wouldnt' hurt to ask if they'd do me any better than their advertised sale price if I just bought EVERYTHING. Turns out, they would.

I now have $1000 (retail price) of truck parts sitting in a box on the floor next to me. I'm gonna pick out what I can use, and maybe set aside some other stuff for a second truck I might build, but I'm still gonna have a ton of extras that I'll end up selling. I'll catalog it all tonight if I can, and show you some of the cool stuff I got.

No shocks, a couple sets of driveshafts, and a bunch of different gears. Like an idiot, I left them at work. I don't have to work late tomorrow, so I'll have more time to do something with them then.

yeah, thats what im thinking of doing once I get this t-maxx back together. the only thing stock on it is the rims. priced everything out, put it up around $900 in aftermarket parts. Keeping with my theme, I wanna get a RC Audi TT. I'll probably try to fit the big block off the Maxx into it and see how quick I can break something.

They were too big for my taste. I like the 1/24th scale on roads like Xmods, Mini-Z, and Micro RS4. Funtimes!
