but to piggyback your point, not giving the gen 8 a chance based on old stereotypes is no different than the ford reference.

You'll never get everyone to be a fan of any particular product in a market where so many options exist. Someone may just not like a single particular feature and get a bad taste in their mouth, its hard to tell. For me, I prefered the gen8 body and the 60 dollars savings out of the box over the trx4 sport. I don't like the body, i don't like the wheels and tires, I couldn't use any existing batteries I own with it without changing the connector type. These were all factors for me when deciding what to purchase. The pro the trx4 had was the obvious aftermarket support and less "what ifs" having seen so many rave about the trx4. In the end, I was ok with some questions and having a body I actually liked. I was let down with the foams, I didn't end up using the wheels and tires, but I will on something, they're pretty nice, but so far the gen 8 has blown me away. I've heard many talk about how top heavy the body is, and thats just not the case for me. Its sidehilling and pulling lines very nimble scx10s are pulling. I don't run with anyone who utilizes any of the trx4 on a regular basis so I can't make comparison there and I'm objective to say maybe it would blow us all out of the water, but maybe not. I'll own one at some point when the right version of the kit comes along, I'm not a traxxas hater, more of a gen 8 defender.

No argument from me on any point there.

Which body or iteration would make you pull the trigger on the TRX-4?
