Let me see... for $700 or less I get a 30cc 4WHEEL DRIVE monster truck that will rip through muds or for $1,200.00 I can get a 2 wheel drive 23cc buggy that promises to perform on mud just like this. Now I remember why I decided to sell my 5b kit to a friend and even allowed him to just make payments on it. I better not show him this video though coz' he's sure as hell gonna be knocking on my door and say "I forgot to mention, my family and I decided to move to Timbuktu and don't have any use for this 5B anymore. And, oh by the way, you wouldn't happen to have an XT/MT lying around, would ya? :D In fairness though, the 5B did managed to go around the mud a few times, with some help from that dude to get it unstuck But think what the XT/MT could have done running on this same track.

Just like in life, you have a soulmate then one day, you go out there and saw this beautiful woman and instantly you were smitten. So, you went for it, then eventually you realize you made a huge mistake and went back to your one true love. when I received my 5B kit, took it to my room and set it next to my XT. Didn't take long for me to realize that the advantages of having a Ramp far outweighs the disadvantages of owning one. Mainly, since I'm new to 5th scale, I just got so jealous that the HPIs' are getting all the attention and endless lists of hopups and wanted to experience having all those goodies installed on my ride. But in the end, it dawned on me that even that is not enough for me to give up my Ramp. So, my next move is to buy me an MT, charge it to my plastic and pay my monthly on my card as my friend keeps making payments on my 5B kit that I sold him. though my old lady told me she wish I would make up my mind and stick to it :(


thanks for the advice Rob! :D
