Merv is gone along with my Thunder AC60 balance charger and the 2 SPC Racing 3S lipos, ex girlfriend stole it and no one knows where she is.
1/18 Ruckus - Finally replaced the diffs for the 4th time
1/10 Ruckus - Castle Sidewinder gave up the ghost as did the 120a eBay unit. Not sure what happened to the Sidewinder, all it does is cog. The 120a eBay unit had a ton of very tiny rocks inside the plastic casing some of them were wedged into the circuit board.
Stampede - Needs a new motor and pinion. Pinion was in the box with the merv....
Firestorm - Needs new engine, snapped a connecting rod. ~$60 off DollarHobbyz

I'm having troubles deciding between a Traxxas E-Revo Brushless, A Traxxas Summit, an Arrma Kraton, or going cheep and getting a Basher Sabertooth.
The ERBE parts are available locally, it has a very large aftermarket, but it does need a lot of work and fixes to make it a good rc.
The Summit is supposed to be pretty awesome, parts available locally, very large aftermarket, doesn't need much if any work or upgrades from stock. I've seen a few videos of people who have owned their Summits for years and have them 100% stock.
The new Kraton is supposed to be very good, but parts would need to be ordered online and there is a limited aftermarket for it. Doesn't need much for upgrades.
Basher Sabertooth is the cheapest of the bunch, can almost buy 3 of them for the price of one ERBE, needs work out of the box, diffs are filled with grease, shocks need work, and tires are so so. Also like the Kraton has a very small aftermarket and parts have to be ordered online.

ERBE - $649.99 + 2 3S batteries
Summit - $549.99 + 2 2S batteries
Kraton - $450.99 + 2 3S batteries
Sabertooth - $234 + shipping +RX/TX + 2 2S batteries

I did want a 1/5th scale but I just do not have the space to run one yet alone store one.
