These truck are quite comparable. both take 2-3s lipo, 4WD, small size and pack lots of power for the size, they are also both fairly annoying to work on and have mostly plastic construction with metal drive lines. The good points of the Savage XS are: Lighter weight Runs very well on 2S Parts are very cheap Shell looks much better So far the chassis seems strong and durable I think the main points which let the Savage XS down are: Tyres don't grip well on dirt The suspension setup is not as well tuned as standard The ESC and motor in the Savage XS are not providing very good punch in the current setup. Gears and drive cups seem to wear and break more than they should. Smaller wheels and tyres with less ground clearance I would like to try some Proline dirt hawg's and the Ground Assault tyres, they are both 2.2inch from the Nitro MT and will also fit the Savage XS. But first i need to sort out which motor and ESC combo is best.
