Man, I want the maxx 4s so badly. I really love that car.
Got one a week ago. A beast of a rc. If you can, get it.
I finally got mine as well, really like it. Never tried it stock, went right to wide maxx. Next up hoss/rustler...going to be a while, though. Maxx nearly killed me to buy upgrade and outfit. No regrets...
I have one, you'll love it. Biggest issue though is the tires. Widemaxx will help but look up a video of the Trencher LP's mounted. It barely rolls on pavement. Stock tires are just too soft and squishy. That'll be my next purchase. I bet I won't need the Widemaxx after that. Also I'll be putting thicker shock oil and higher speed pinion/ spur. Hopefully that lowers the wheelies lol
I am also thinking about the revo 2.0 What r ur thoughts? I love that car too.

I run stock tires 70/60 weight oil, lotsa preload, tires slide and truck doesn’t roll, gotta stay on the power. Trenchers are awesome but cvd upgrade is a must as opposed to recommended. You will also may need to get aluminum castor blocks or the weight of the trenchers will break those. I like oem traxxxas tires! Super easy on drivetrain. But when kaiju tires come back in I am buying two sets one for the kaiju and one for max, they are really light! And at 35 a set how could you go wrong?
I am heading to the hobby store tomorrow. Just sold my upgraded Stampede yesterday. Time to get get new one and start tinkering. Debating the Hoss and Maxx thabks for making the video.
I’m thinking about selling my upgraded stampede to get the Maxx. Just curious as to what you got and how much extra it ended up costing you to get started with your new vehicle?
you all prolly dont give a shit but does someone know of a way to log back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb lost my password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me.
Just commenting because you said that you were going to the hobby store... I had no idea how lucky I was when I started messing with RC cars. I had ordered one online and then realized I didn't really know enough about it to just order one and expect to be able to run so I googled a hobby shop and RC madness in Enfield Connecticut was like 5 minutes from my house. They've got like six or seven different tracks and have tournaments almost like every weekend.
I sold my stampede to get the maxx. It’s much better
It’s cool to see some bruthas in RC! 👊
Can't really evenly compare the two when the maxx has the widemaxx kit. In stock form, I'd take a hoss every day of the week. I'd rather my vehicle didn't flip over every other time I turn.
I have the maxx definitely a good basher I'll be getting the Hoss soon
Nice comparison brother, my pick would be the Maxx hands down. 👍
Great video! I haven’t messed around with RC cars since I was little, went out and bought two Traxxas Stampede’s for my boys to play with, and I crash one into a mailbox post head on at about 45 mph and broke it🤦🏾♂️ lol, hopefully they can fix it, but your channel is dope bro subbed! 🙏🏿
tks!!!
This little Hoss is to expensive for that what it offers...
And the x MAXX ist better I think 🤔🤘
I own a xmaxx and a hoss they are both awesome
1:35 i just replaced my rustler 4x4 vxl with sledgehammer tires, spur gear because it stripped in a hard crash. i replaced it and didn’t use lock tight and immidiatly stripped the spur because the pinion was loose… i now have locktight for the pinion thread…
Video was more lit than the trap! Well done my friend (as always). I think having both is a must- lol. You inspired me to bust out the maxx today in the snow!!
Appreciate all you do!
👊🏽🤙🏽🏎🏎🏎🏎
Awesome! Thank you!
I like them both, more. Had to go maxx first, but they will. All. Be. Mine.
The hoss is actually a fairly expensive truck, That can do tricks other trucks can’t.
If you’re good at repairing 1/10 scale traxxas i believe it would be a good truck to own.
If you hate working on your trucks, all the 3s traxxas can be problematic. All of the components on those trucks are highly stressed on 3 cell. Running 2s Is an option, But I have heard the hoss is plain slow on 2 cell.
You mentioned stampede in this review, it should be mentioned the old fathful vxl stampede 4 breaks rarely on 2s and is still pretty quick and fun. At 400 new, the value is a little dubious, however.
In conclusion they both need upgrades, Neither is cheap. Hoss is more capable in air and general tricking, and faster off the line. You will be working on Hoss often. Maxx is more capable overall, More durable and more expensive. Less maintenance required, overall.
I have a ruster 4 here, do not own Hoss yet. Rustler has experienced typical failures, Shock caps, rod end failure, Incorrectly meshed from the factory, But the driveshafts have held up pretty well-Truck actually belongs to my son and he loves it.
Overall it’s just an evolution of the/design not a full redesign. The wider diameter Shafts are much better, So much so that they feel comfortable putting the hoss monster tires on there
i threw a VXL-4s in my 3903 emaxx i think it was. the dual brushed setup originally, i just got it running recently but the potential this thing has is crazy, i love it even more because this is my favorite truck traxxas has ever made, sad to see no real Emaxx 2.0 refresh or just not yet.
ps i have only ran 3s with a 17T pinion i think with the stock 68T spur, kept up with my brothers maxx, just less torque. i thought maybe i need to lower pinion teeth but i also realized it could be the clutch is slipping to much. i’m gonna investigate but i will never stop bashing the E-Maxx!
I would pick maxx becuase it is so much more durable
I love Maxx!! Now let’s watch and see!!!
I love my Maxx. It’s a frickin blast. Wide Maxx kit is a must. Not I have an Xmaxx too. It’s a tank!
Maxx all day. The Hoss is like a better Stampede I guess.
NOPE, you need to watch more HOSS videos, sir...
@@timsgta I've driven a Hoss. It's nothing special.
@@RobertNES816 Well I've seen other people drive a hoss and they can make it do some pretty cool stuff so maybe you're nothing special...
@@timsgta maybe you're a little sensitive lol.
It's a better Stampede lol. Does that make you feel better cupcake?
@@RobertNES816 sure thing Bobby
Great both but want a Xmaxx😀
I've been looking at the Maxx for a while now. Especially with the wide kit.
Nice skills on the wheelies. I have both. Very smooth trucks in there own way. Love them both. Same colors too lol. 💪flex on the driving bro.
tks
Which one is better for stunts? I only have long wheelbase cars and it is hard to do backflips with them :(
Maxx is the one
I only have the MAXX. Hoss looks really fun. But would rather cough out another 100 bucks to get another MAXX ;)
Or 100 less and get Kaiju. It is a solid truck. Great buddy for my Maxx.
Gotta see these two do a speed test at those loading docs (Where you thrashed the corvette body-sorry! :0) ) !!!
😄
If you get the hoss, be prepared to buy all the aftermarket parts for it right off the bat. The plastic cv axles snapped within 10 mins after opening. Another immediate upgrade would be shocks.
That's a bummer. For dropping $430 on it and then immediately having to buy aftermarket parts... doesn't make much sense. I am very new to the hobby. Just trying to understand, why is the truck $430 if parts just break 10mins in?
I like my Traxxas hoss going with a 16 tooth pinion gear to get 50 mph plus instead of 40 mph I don’t want it any faster to hard to control
Nice vid man
We have run the Hoss and the Xmaxx hoping to get the Maxx soon. All great cars
I will get both of them badass RC cars"s.!!!💯💯💯😎😎😎
the maxx looks good with the wide wheelbase
Dang I'm so proud of my redcat mt10e I'm pulling 51 mph 13 pinion gear.
Bro turn that tsm off when you’re doing speed runs it won’t wobble so much, I use half tsm at most when I’m on dirt and dirt only
love your content! I would love to see some vorza on grass action in the future 😁

@@JayTeeRC wow awesome howd i miss this one🤩
@@sautso7074 😁
I cant think why you would want a hoss over a maxx ....
Because of the price
@@koltenkazz6926 back when i commented on this the Maxx was only 60 bucks more than the Hoss. So u can see my angle. The Hoss is just a terrible truck. The Maxx is the best 4s basher out there imo. Prices have seriously changed now. Hope that clarifies my comment bro 😉
You triggered my PTSD lol. I had a pinion your fall off when I was a lap ahead of everybody when I was 14 at the state championships for two wheel drive stock truck in Alaska. Literally a lap ahead of everybody and the only get about seven laps in a 4-minute race back then on this big track and my pinion your falls off with a minute left. I won the next year but that will never leave my mind as far as losing goes. At later competitions I actually soldered my pinion gear to the motor shaft. I won the next year's I competed but I would never take that chance again!! To a 14-year-old little nerdy fat kid that crushed my world. Oh well four years later I won my high school bodybuilding show because I wasn't a fat kid anymore after I lost 100 lb and started lifting weights. RC cars kind of went by the wayside when I discovered girls well at least when they would talk back to me anyway LOL.
good video by the way
Nice life story bro 😂
About 10 years ago I got into rc pretty hardcore.
Started with the 3.3 revo got the pico motor then went brushless with the new erevo brushless and that truck was amazing. Got the vxl rustler and a 1/16 erevo and the 1/16 summit. I spent a couple grand easy all from one hobby shop. I spent so much time in there learning the hobby and thought the owners were pretty cool. One day maxing our the erevo I hit a metal trash can busted the truck up and sent it in for repairs. I left the truck there for the winter and messed around a bit with my other rcs and 2-3 months later went to get my baby my erevo which I prob had 1500 into total and those scumbags sold my truck on me. I said you never called me. They said they thought I was never coming back after a month and they have a policy that I was unaware of about cars left there that they could be sold. I said you never called me once I’ve spent 5 k with you guys and all my friend who come here now because of me and you thought it was ok to sell my truck without a damm call. Anyone never went back to that shop ever again. I miss my baby and think it’s time for the 2.0
Both of the truck so fast my favorite one is the hoss
I own the hoss its a beast on its own it be doing bunnyhops lol
I want a truck that runs good on grass, I want the Hoss but the Maxx has the advantage of bigger tires and you can but a wide kit
Get the maxx
@Cruz I'm going with the Maxx
That bag of rubbish feels like part of the family now. I feel like we should give it a name. Nigel or Roger or something.
I have both i like the hoss better
Wish Traxxas had a new 1/8th scale monster truck
Maxx wide kit ❣❤👍👌
Both are nice 👌
I have a orange X-Max it’s so big not really enough room in my yard when I don’t feel like going someone where to drive it, considering the Max for back yard bashing when I don’t want to go to go somewhere for the X.
Will the X Max battery fit in the Max? I have the 6700 battles and not have buy more battles would be a big selling point
No they wont fit
V2 will
Love your positivity and simple comparison approach to both these RC vics 😉
I’m in the market to buy either:
A: Traxxas maxx
Or
B: Erevo 2.0.
I’m a light basher only speed runs, hill climbs, crawling and light terrain jumps like what u did in video.
Which would you get ?
traxxas maxx with wide kit
@@JayTeeRC that’s a good copy 😎💯
Traxxas maxx w/ wide body kit it is
I enjoyed a great video let's be friends. 😀😀
우리 친구 해요!!!!!
Another Dope Vid!
Appreciate it!!
The best 1/10 rc's and the Maxx is the better out of the two. The Granite and the Big Rock would have already broken down just doing the speed runs. I have the Granite and that thing breaks all the time.
I have a brushless granite 4x4 and it's one of the toughest bashers I've ever had in the 18 years I've been in the hobby. I beat the snot out of it, running only 3s and the biggest issue has been screws coming loose from lack of loctite and/or just being loose from the factory. After re-torquing everything and applying loctite where needed, it has been solid. I've done over a dozen brutal bash sessions in a row with no drama or breaks, other than the mangled body shell. Double backflips and massive jumps are not a problem for that thing. I've been very impressed with the durability, especially for how cheap it is. It is built cheaply, but with great engineering and surprisingly decent electronics. I also love how easy they are to work on.
I like the brushless granite 4x4 so much, I bought one for my brother, too. When we were teenagers, he had the worst luck and experiences with his rc cars and abandoned the hobby. More than a decade later, he's back in the hobby and having a blast with his granite.
Hi congratulations for the channel, but the Hoss can go to 4s?
Thank you
change the esc
That garage is still there.....lol
I aint touching it 💩💩💩...lol. But FR it was all shot in same day
Just touch it🤪 think of all the views JT 😂😂😂😂
Kaiju vs hoss 4s
Do the hoss heat up with the aftermarket esc?
Nice content 👍
Thank you 👍
Had a good 10 minutes blasting today until I hit some dog shit and covered myself with a 3s Wheelspin!! What a disaster! Anyone else manged to do this by accident?
😳
That sounds HORRENDOUS 💩 💨
Hoss can bunny hop and ollie from a stop... nuff said...
Nice comparison,cool RCs
which one better sir?
Maxx
I know I'm a Arrma fan boy but do you not think Traxxas are so overpriced? I understand the Maxx is a solid MT but for me it's over priced. The Hoss is a joke compared to the new Granite imo.
Sorry for hating but Traxxas had cut corners with the Hoss.
Great video as always Jay but these are not for me.
Their new bashers have been a let down since they entered the crawling game.
@@Largetalons yeah they've taken there eye off the ball imo. Traxxas just need to look at Arrma 6s range. Felony,infraction and the Typhon.....Traxxas so far behind when it comes to design.
You need to new more HOSS research, there more to this rc than running in a parking lot, you CANNOT judge the hoss off of pavement, ffs! Go watch outsourcedRC...
i am dumbfounded. my HOSS cannot go a whole battery without at least ONE driveshaft breaking. It happens if i wheelie or brake in the air. I've even shattered the 70 dollar pair of TRAXXAS brand splined driveshaft. all on 3S =o(
@@joshuataylor9224 wholly crap i've asked soo many people. noone mentioned these. ordered!
@@joshuataylor9224 already have 3 sets of metal hexes. i don't order replacements, i order inventory. HAHA
Agree with josh I went back to stock arms to run teknos and got the metal hexes been going strong sense little help when searching search for the tekno shaft for slash 4x4 they don’t have em listed for hoss some places they also work on rustler 4x4
@@tbonerchobbies8678 found them!

@@joshuataylor9224 thank you again, sir!
Can i connect the maxx vxl 4s motor with the normal vxl 3s esc?
that's what comes with Hoss
It’s not even a question video should not even have been made. Maxx is in a whole different league!
Do you have a c7?
yep
Maxx it is
Traxxas maxx vs xmaxx winner is xmaxx
Traxxas hoss vs stampede winner is hoss
Traxxas maxx vs hoss winner is maxx
i like the maxx do not like the hoss
Why?
First?
Think so...😬
Hoss over rated ide rather have my big rock better then the hoss
