The Durango truck is pretty awesome mate, if you go for the kit version you get the option for Mid motor or rear motor and a ball diff as standard

If you go for the RTR (THAT'S WHAT I DID) you need to spend an extra tenner on the mid motor parts and you get a gear diff as standard, maybe a better option depending on how much maintenance you want to do on it

In my opinion these things are pretty bullet proof, I've raced mine at 4 different club nights (i race 1/16 micro and 1/10 buggy most of the time so trucking is my occasional for a laugh class) and haven't broken a thing on it. This was with some pretty hard racing and some hefty collisions to boot, big air jumps etc.

I have heard of one guy breaking the chassis, but for me it hasn't been a problem.

I can't reccomend the Durango enough, especially at the silly prices you can get them for, I got mine from PBM Racing, give Andy a call on 01773 769323, I'm sure he'll do you a great deal and they stock Kyosho and Team C too so if you go that way he'll be able to sort you out there, very knowledgeable too!
