I agree. I too have (had) a v1 MT410. It's an awesome truck. I ended up stretching mine onto an ET48.3 chassis because the ET fits better for my use. I didn't mean to put down any of the other trucks/rc's I mentioned, each have their virtues I feel. However, Tekno is a racing company who happens...
I can't imagine the plastic trucks can match the Tekno for precision. Durability maybe, but the Hoss or Granite feel like a toy by comparison. I know we're talking bashers so, precision may not matter to some. I like my Hoss, Rustler and Bandit too, but they just have a vagueness to them...
Scale is just a mere suggestion in the rc world I've concluded.
Look at the E Revo 2.0. All the size, weight and components of any 1/8 truggy or muggy on the market, yet TRX says 1/10 scale. Hoss and v2 Maxx are both 1/10? Arrma Vorteks and Kraton 4s, same scale, but the Kraton 4s is huge next...
