cyclistyou must have bought some other model because I just checked and this is $599 + tax on tower, with a 75$ coupon off 499(biggest discount coupon available) you still do not see equivalent savings.
airjordanit was on sale 2 weeks ago. 150$ off..and with 60$ coupon it is down to 390$ shipped. I waited for that deal for a long time and It turned out very well. that truck doesn't deserve 600$ at all. even 390$ is still questionable but the warranty, accessible spare parts from local shops and mark up bring the price very high. anyways I love it with my free body from towehobby that gave cash back with my purchase. tower hobby price cannot be bitten.
