I am being crazy indecisive right now and want to see where yall push me. Every time I go to buy one of these I want one of the other ones. HELPPP

I am going to get all 5 sooner than later but I am torn on what car I want to buy next. So Ill see if yall can settle it for me

The options are:

1. Traxxas 3s Fiesta ST rally car
https://traxxas.com/products/landing/fiesta-st-rally-vxl/

2. Traxxas XRT
https://traxxas.com/products/landing/xrt/

3. Mojave 6s
https://www.arrma-rc.com/en/product...-truck-with-spektrum-firma-rtr/ARA7604V2.html

4. Traxxas TRX-4 High Country F-150 ranger
https://traxxas.com/products/landing/ford-f150-pickup/

5. HPI WR8 2.0 WRX

XRT is a destination specific truck, if you got the space they're a blast to drive.
Mojave 6s is the most versatile of the bigger trucks.
I don't know your interest so maybe a Fiesta road ranger might be a better truck?

My vote is for the Mojave 6s.

2 on road only rally cars, the XRT, a crawler, and the Mojave.

I have the TRX-4 with Defender body. I find unique challenge with crawlers. I may shorten the wheelbase and get the Ford 150 body.

I have the Mojave. BEAST. Scorched fenders are 100% worth it.

Sorry, rally cars ...... I have no input

XRT ...... wow

The odd one out is the crawler. That is a whole different dimension of RC. Thats my vote for you..... or.......

ALL OF EM !!!!!!!!!!!!

My next rc purchase will be a XRT.
Big purchase. I'd be counting my pennies.

I voted Mojave 6s. Most versatile, easier to manage size than huge 6th scales, best acceleration/durability for the money, and virtually unlimited amount of aftermarket parts from cheap aluminum upgrades off Aliexpress, to high end M2C, Scorched, and even ADU. It's only downside is the expensive body. But it can easily be recreated into anything from SCT, to monster truggy, to, well....anything, really.

Yeah and Ill get one soon for sure. I just already bought three arrma 6s this year so even though I really want one I kinda want a new platform to play with for a little bit

Oh. Well that helps me know more. In that case, I'd go for a rally car.

It'll be a while if I do. You're right, XRT is $$$. Honestly I have lots of fun bashing my 1/10th scale stuff lately & less breakage 😄

Same. Shopping online now for best deal on an Ultimate.
Hobby Town in Kennesaw, 2 hours from me, has a few of the XRTs in stock. Knoxville HT has the Ultimate in stock.

I know what you mean. I have three 6s & looking for something different.
