HPI's truck offerings, where do they all fit?

the bullet is LS10/GT10 based, its a good platform but has its quirks.

Thanks Ross, was curious on that one. Would you consider it a better/stronger platform than the Stampede 4x4?

I have just been looking for something in that range. I had kind of settled on the stampede but after looking over the bullet MT was up in the air.

I just want a fun little 4WD basher with a little speed. I have no desire to go back to 8th scale monsters at this point.

My friend had endless troubles with his Bullet ST. More specifically the diff outdrives and dogbones. Wearing out and twisting like pretzels. That was in a nitro version too so I am guessing (well I am not really) that the brushless would be even harsher on them. Shame as I really like the looks of it and like Tex was looking for a fun little 1/10th monster.

Was also thinking of the Savage XS but it seems to have a few little quirks too so I might wait on that and see if HPI irons them out. For now I think I might just get a 4x4 Stampy and stick a better brushless setup in it (MMM/2650kv combo). Think it would be better way to go as the Slash 4x4 (virtually the same car with a longer chassis) has such a huge aftermarket following.
