So which body style should I get?

FWIW, Tower just dropped their price to $675, so with the $60 off coupon, it's barely more than amain. It's even more appealing with the 3 payment plan on tower.

When I get one I am planning on getting the Bullydog since it has red beadlocks..

I didn't need to know this.. How much is all of the nitro stuff off it worth? maybe then I can justify it...

I'm figuring maybe $150...and that's counting the radio gear too. I just don't see those motors going for much on eBay.

the 3 payment plan on tower is cool but if you use amain and you can use the paypal pay later offer and beable to pay as you want over a 90 day period, thats what i did with my Rc8T i ordered last week, used the %10 off and some store credit points to get the Rc8t and 3 cans of paint for 520 shipped. Hard deal to beat and plus it give me plenty of time to get all my stuff i was selling sold and shipped and sorted out, then i can pay for the truck at the first of the year after i get my holiday bonus and check for the two weeks im working during christmas break. all works out nicley because other wise id have the truck and no electronics, this way i went ahead and got everything all at once.

If I were to go that route, it would save me a whole $13.58 over Tower. My rewards points aren't redeemable yet, so that doesn't help either. Also, if I add in $25 more with a tower order (to make it $699.90+), I can get $70 off instead of $60 off.

FWIW: I've experienced that amain ships faster than tower.

That's true, but ground shipping from CA to FL is slow as heck. Even if Tower sits on an order 2 days longer, I'd still get it at the same time or sooner than AMain.
