Last summer i sold 2 of my crawlers to create some space and immediately regretted it. It didnt go to plan as since then ive aquired  another crawler, another 1/8 buggy and a boat If i had to sell any i would keep hold of my trusty carisma coyote crawler, as its always the first thing i pick up

I usually sell the ones which end up wearing out a set of tyres every time I used it.

I get what your saying the Felony will go through tyres pretty quick and not cheap for stock hoons, but there are other very smart on road quick cars that will be a lot better on running and purchase price................wish i had not put last bit because i just know your gonna ask what models lol ha ha ha

Im having opposite problem, quite a few to sell but as nothing selling so cant be bothered to list them, i think the list so far is brushless outlaw, MN82 toyota, 2 tamiya rally cars, a little Hi-speed 1/18th fireteam clone. Partly tempted to sell the wifes coyote to get her an upgrade, even the gatekeeper powerwagon could end up being a casualty then there are all the rc planes that dont get flown any more

Im with you, I cant be bothered to sell at the moment. Bizarely I've probably got enough PARTS to sell that would give me the funds to buy something quite nice, but just cant be bothered. I think when I move everything up into the loft anything I want to sell Ill list then. I think I'll sell my BBX when the time come too

Nah I have an idea on what I want just not willing to pay for any yet 😀. Think I will try an affordable easy to use onroad car see if I like the whole tarmac running thing and if I do might invest in a really nice one 🙂, then plow it into a curb because that seems a running theme for me when i take stuff on the tarmac 🤣.

Well if your gonna do that make sure you record it, watching rc crashes is quite spectacular!

2 for me....My tamiya mad bull which I've had for around 25 years which is in need of parts and a rebuild. One day I'll get round to sorting it out. My traxxas mini revo as it was a surprise from my kids years ago when I was 1st learning about lipos. The amount of money I put into that changing every for it to still be uncontrollably is prob one of the reasons I still like it!

All of what I currently own, except maybe the Kyosho Scorpion xxlve. It's a lovely drive and quite tough, I've broken nothing despite many tumbles. It doesn't see big air, I'm too chicken for that, but long and low is acceptable. Only thing that really needed sorting was the diff, which was replaced with a modded CEN diff thanks to Ttypedan many years ago. It's been rock solid ever since.

For me it would me my "jack of all trades master of none" 1/10 summit. Running castle esc and DeWalt motor.

 

The other would be my axial UMG10 unimog. Took me ages to find one and love the way it handles.

I do regret selling my Summit, I actually think its better than the TRX4

james franco wtf GIF 

How dare you 🤣 .

 

To be fair I was looking at the summit before I got a TRX4, it's a unique rig and suspension is a work of art. The amount of suspension travel my revo 2.0 has makes it glide over the areas I take it 😃.
