I like the looks of true car crushing monster trucks, but I want the performance of an independent suspension truck. What's out there that's popular and easy to get parts for? The only thing that comes to mind is the old HPI Savage flux but it's too old now isn't it? not too easy to get parts.
I really like the Losi LMT because it's absolutely massive and very scale. The price is rather insane though.
I've seen the Kyosho USA 1, another 1/8 monster truck that is in the $500's. Not sure how scale it is or how it compares in size to the LOSI LMT.
With whatever I choose, I will definitely keep them doing monster jam/truck scale stuff. I have an Arrma Mojave for the crazy stuff.
For strictly Monster Truck scale stunts, which should I get?
He has a pretty great vocabulary, but one thing he says the most, he refuses to say correctly. "MOMMA FUCKS."
Not going to lie, that shit was funny, 6 months ago. He is easy to correct and willingly tries to properly pronounce all other words and phrases, but insists Momma Fucks are awesome! Even in the middle of a Commencement speech at my oldest daughter's HS graduation. I'm constantly repeating Monster Truck in public to ensure people nearby that he's really not cussing me out or calling me some kind of ho. Lol.
Does anyone else have a Momma Fuck story?
It's one of the only really old cars that haven't retired yet. It's in the game since 2017! And still hasn't been retired.
What I'm saying is that the monster truck might be the first 1 million vehicle to retire.
I (16F) bought a powerwheels monster truck on facebook marketplace for cheap and then my dad replaced the battery with one he found on ebay. I wanted to keep it at my parents house because my nephew (3M) has a big field to drive it in and I babysit him 3 times a week. I also wanted to keep it so that if I babysit other kids they can use it too. It's like a $400 truck that I got for $100 including the cost of the new battery.
My nephew loves the powerwheels and I explained to him that we are going to leave it at my house so that when it gets warm again he can drive it in the field. My sister in-law (22F) got angry because she thinks that because I bought it with money I got babysitting my nephew and he is the only kid that I babysit that I should let her take it to their house. I told her that I bought it to help me babysit and make my nephew more excited to come over.
She offered to give me the $100 for it, but I turned it down and said that he can use it at my house when I babysit him, and that my house is a lot safer for him to drive it at. At her house he would have to drive it on the road, it's not busy, but he would still need to have someone walk with him constantly. At my house he can drive around in the field and you don't have to worry about cars or other people. You still have to pay attention to him but it's less likely that a car speeds by.
