The 8Xl will not get you 45+mph on 14 cells unless your truck is super light, but I would still go with this motor over the L.

Loads of torque, great accel, plenty of speed (low 38-40ish depending on weight/gearing), and cooler running. Unless you are planning to drive only on street, you will never ever do 50mph offroad. Not long at least until you hit a bump or rock and then 50mph flips and cartwheels get very ugly.

See my vids for an idea what the 8Xl can do in an MT.
