Oh crap, I have been avoiding thinking about the ammount I spend but since the beginning of the year when I got into this

$200-Clod kit
$20-link parts and steel for chassy
$30-body
$55-lathes and pinions
$90-batteries
$35-maxx mashers (yet to be run )
$30-masher 2ks (yet to be run )
$130-6 channel FM cause the 2 channel just wasn't cutting it
$120-645mgs
$40-1/4 servo for winch
$90-second set of clod axles (here we go again)
$30-body, trashed the first one
$90-for 2.2 wheels and geolanders
$50-second charger cause I cant wait for one charger to charge 6 packs
$50-at least in randon little crap

So 1060 in 6 or so months, I am screwed since soon I hope to add a TLT or two to te list of money eaters

The key is NOT to keep track of how much you spend My wife thinks this is a cheap hobby

Each truck has different amounts spent. I figure I've been into the RC hobby since 1986, have multipule RC's(cars, trucks, boats, etc) and have spent at least a couple dollars in total

Tower's probably getting the biggest slice, then Tamiya, Pro-line, Hitec, Novak, etc.
