The Traxxas Stampede VXL Brushless 2WD RC Truck and the Traxxas T-Maxx 2.5 4WD Nitro RTR Monster Truck are both great remote control trucks. The Stampede VXL is a brushless electric RC truck, while the T-Maxx is a nitro powered RC truck. Both trucks have great features and are fun to drive, but there are some key differences between them. The Stampede VXL is much faster than the T-Maxx, due to its brushless motor. It can reach speeds of up to 35mph, while the T-Maxx is limited to about 20mph. The Stampede VXL also has better handling thanks to its lower center of gravity and wider stance. The T-Maxx, on the Other hand, is more durable thanks to its all-metal construction and beefier suspension. It can also take bigger jumps thanks to its longer suspension travel. In terms of value for money, the Stampede VXL is the better option since it's cheaper and faster than the T-Maxx. However, if you're looking for a more durable truck that can handle tougher terrain, then the T-Maxx would be a better choice.
