@taxation is theft memes news & more These tires have been available for a long time.

[@olds97lss]

@taxation is theft memes news & more I have a set on my slashpede 4x4. They aren't bad for grass, but are of a harder compound than all my other tires. Guessing they will be really stiff when cold and won't offer much traction in the winter.

[@cbforme]

I am so happy for you that the boys at the traxxas store let you get your hands on a maxx v2 first. god knows you spent enough money there you probably helped put there kids thru college

[@msmeveryday]

🤣🤣

[@robertlongley9153]

I was watching two other KZbin channels. About this new MAXX. All I could think was how does Kevin Talbot have the new MAXX in the UK and Mark Santa Maria the unofficial Traxxas spokesperson right around the block does not. Glad to see you have it. I will be getting one in green I wonder if there is a trade in allowance on my other MAXX. Just kidding I not giving that one up. Can’t wait to see your running video

[@msmeveryday]

We wondered the same and wondered if they would release in the US!!!!

[@Mike3LV6]

germany also got it 😁

[@thor8447]

Yes, please stop saying new lol.... Traxxas hasn't come out with anything "new" in years. All the same stuff with different colors, or how many more 4tecs do we need.

[@patrickmccarthy3289]

@@thor8447 most companies arent really giving us new (completely redesigned from the ground up)....just reusing the same electronics and chassis...then adding different wheels, longer/shorter arms, different body or colors as well. Or just scaling a popular platform/model to a different size.

[@KingLoggFrogg]

Raaaad!!! Thanks for the preview!! Can’t wait to see you drive it!

[@CoffeeNerd1977]

I got my Maxx a month ago and then this comes out :-( I love my Maxx as is and hope that parts will be available for a while.

[@westtxgreg]

What??? How??? I’m so jelly, I just talked to my guy at our local hobby shop about this truck. Disappointed they still kept that huge slow steering servo glad they finally came out with the wide Maxx out of the box. Battery tray also. 👍🏻

[@Juggalohachetman]

Yeah I just got done watching Kevin Talbot now you Traxxas finally came through with the perfect RC

[@belkey3]

Awesome I love my v1 wide Maxx I hope they do a upgrade kit like they did on the Xmaxx in 17 when the 8S Xmaxx came out

[@REDWOLF_RC_ARMORY]

I need all the chassis stuff as soon as possible should make the original maxx so much more stable

I just bought that charger the other day it's a really good charger I like it and I bought it cuz one day I plan on getting an x-max so I can charge the 4-in battery it was worth the 100 bucks

Can we get a comparison to size to a E revo. I fell like I ts a good comparison

I got that exact color on the way. Would have gotten the sledge but not feeling a aluminum chassie.

[@justinkase2279]

Looks good!

[@michaelherrmann3971]

Gonna keep up with the Revo now.

[@ZeuZLoD]

I just hope I can buy the parts needed to convert my current Maxx into this new extended Maxx!!

[@bryanmiller476]

That would be quite a bit, you’d need an entire new longer chassis as well as the wide max kit with longer arms and drive shafts

[@gugman9684]

Here in Australia it is almost impossible to get Traxxas cars or parts. There are no retailers or hobby shops that have them and if you want one it has to be pre-ordered. This one is listed at $1.670.00AU and any 1/10 scale cars start at $1.000.00AU. I did manage to get the C10 Drag Slash and it cost me $1.100.00AU making it the most expensive RC Car I own and can not even get any spare Traxxas wheels for it. I got 2 DR10's for less than that. Then if you want parts or upgrades you can forget it as even U.S. hobby shops can not ship them here as there seems to be some B.S. restrictions on doing so.

[@CircuitAce]

Can you please do a size comparison to an E Revo 2.0

[@RCKnockout]

Awesome video Mark! $30 more for the V2 Maxx sounds like a steal compared to the V1

[@patrickmccarthy3289]

especially with the cost they would have us pay to upgrade the v1 to be similar to the v2

[@RCKnockout]

@@patrickmccarthy3289 yeah I know…..I think I’ll just stick with the v1 lol…..I wonder if the V2 will be available in the same colors as the V1?

AWESOME!!! I want one! I'm getting it IF the wifey will let me. Great video Mark. Ya, Kevin was going on this morning about how they got it before us. BUT I love y'all and don't care. I'm glad to see that they FINALLY made the Maxx better and I didn't think it could/would be done, but it has been done. Awesome! Again, I will be getting one IF the wife lets me for Christmas. I hope they have it in the sinister black. that would be so killer! Lol

[@johnlincoln4616]

Much needed update to make this a real brasher contender, but $579 is still a big pill to swallow. That’s not far from 6s kraton money🤷🏼‍♂️

[@TheFatAssCat]

It's a tank man. Our Arrmas handle a little better but our Maxx just keeps on chugging, the stupid hits I've seen my Maxx take and keep on running.

[@freedomlawnservice1987]

Arrma sucks parts are a pain in butt

[@CopperCanyonTerrapins]

Might pick up a set of Sledgehammers for my Stampede 4x4 VXL.

[@fatecheetorjay5039]

Props Mark

[@msmeveryday]

🤙🤙

[@alexp6409]

Personally I like the looks/proportions of the OG Maxx better. Looks more monster trucky. Curious what the V2 would look like with the OG tires on it.

[@jasonadams7991]

Yeah I am the same way. I know obviously the majority love and used the Wide Maxx kit, but I love the stock width of the V1 Maxx personally it's fun and feels like a monster truck. I had the wide Maxx kit on mine but took it back off after a week or so. But it's great this V2 Maxx came out for those that want a longer, wider Maxx straight out of the box.

[@bigboytoyzrc9258]

I agree

[@George.T.83]

Someone wants to look like e revo 2.0. Nice video Mark.

[@Shane-on5kh]

Thanks Traxxas I just bought the Maxx 6 months ago.

Nice! I don't think I'll spend money on buying another maxx as I have it this way already minus the longer chassis, I hope you can convert the front end tho cuz I rather put money towards another xmaxx haha,

SWEET!!!

[@rmarkley79]

Finally ordered mone last night, should have it just before the weekend! I debated driving to Dallas to buy it at the shop there, one day I'll head out there. I'm in Houston. Edit: I went with green to match my Rustler 4x4 vxl.

Dooooo it!!!!

[@victorsgarage6238]

Wow are they going to stop production of v1? Or parts like chasi or body of the car?

[@gasolinediesel972]

They already have stopped production of the v1. So far they haven't stopped parts production, and they most likely won't, but time will tell.

[@ethanvissers6018]

Can the V2 maxx handle bigger tires?? It’s 10 pounds on a 4s power ststem…

[@pmatrisotto]

E-maxx forever!

[@netcruzer]

Hopefully the shock tuning also changed to avoid the excessive chassis slap of the original, if that was changed too it fixes all the big flaws of the original design. Thankful that Traxxas didn’t have a huge price increase. But I feel for the people who recently bought maxx, widemaxx, every upgrade part and now they made a longer chassis and body and centre driveshaft and all the other bits you’d still need to do to get up to full v2 spec.

[@rchobbyer]

The v2 maxx body fits to original maxx?

[@trygzemke7503]

This would be cool to compare to the e revo 2.0

Traxxas shouldn't discontinued the old maxx (v1), just put the wide maxx on v1 and keep selling it, some people like short wheel base, just like arrma outcast 6s and kraton 6s.

[@warofages07]

Pros and cons of v2 versus original? Most specifically in regards to the longer chassis.

[@gasolinediesel972]

It will wheelie less and be slightly more stable. Plus it is larger and looks better proportionally with the widemaxx.

[@alexp6409]

@@gasolinediesel972 Oh, and it costs $30 more.

[@gasolinediesel972]

@@alexp6409 The chassis alone will be close to $30. Widemaxx $50+. Tires $80+ for a set. Of course, you have to subtract the values of the original items, but this would still be worth around $30 more than the original. The longer chassis + widemaxx puts this in 1/8 scale territory. All it needs is revo size tires and it's a true 1/8. You want more, you pay more. It's fun to clown on traxxas for stuff, but an extra $30 to solve pretty much every single issue with the maxx? That's a good deal.

@@warofages07 They actually do have a trade in program for electronics, but not entire vehicles.

Seems like nobody wants to do upgrades to there R/C's anymore they want it out of the box the best it can be, that's not directed at you MSM, I know you can build,fix and do anything to a R/C. But it will be a very cool truck for sure. I will buy the parts and make my Maxx longer I already have widemaxx kit so will buy the other parts when available...

Its more rewarding to build it up ;)

Hey man I'm doing a survey and wanted to what your two favorite RC manufacturers are

[@bigboytoyzrc9258]

If you got the V1 is the really a reason to get this one? I'd be hard pressed to justify the means imo. Now as you said.. it would cost you $700 + out the door with the wm kit and lights. So if you don't have a Maxx (and you like the banana body more) then yeah get the V2.

[@lawrenceroe8961]

[@closewatermelon]

The smaller wheels with the wide kit, oh my god I can’t wait

[@ethanvissers6018]

Back in the day Traxxas did the same thing to the T-MAXX. 2.5 to 3.3. Only thing I don’t like is that Traxxas didn’t put bigger tires on the Maxx V2 like they did on the T-Maxx 3.3…. do they know something we should know??? I think the V2 Maxx looks bad with those wimpy sledgehammers…

[@ytr4]

I feel like larger tires decrease the durability of the car to a degree. When the car inevitably crashes/cartwheels/a bad landing, the larger tyres would exert a larger torque on all the arms and wheel hubs etc

[@miketube6662]

Will there be a new x max next year maybe 🤔

Traxxas should let you send back your maxx v1 with proof of purchase & they should upgrade you're truck with the additional features for an additional 30 bucks 😁

It's not sooooo much longer its about 1.6 inches wider and about an 1 longer than it was before just buy the new replacement Chassis and then you have the V2 this isn't so amazing and out of this world. Traxxas should sponcer you if they quietly are not already because I promise you make them tons on money with your free promotion of their products Mr. Santa maria

[@netcruzer]

He didn’t know what it costs or Color he got at start of video, so read between the lines that means Traxxas gave him this for promotional and review content. With the new charger update and the ID 4S they want promoted. Definitely an influencer kit IMO, and he should disclose that. Im not jealous, just think it’s needed for transparency and legal reasons.

[@chrisstevensrcadventures9017]

So they made a 1/8 scale Maxx trying to keep up with Arrama LOL. It would of been better on 6s

[@c05sporty]

Am I the only one not seeing 300 difference in the new one?? Besides it’s a little longer they’re giving you a $50 widemaxx kit for $30 basically. I’d rather have the old one being shorter and more rigid, plus more of an 1/8 scale only on 4s that’s a slap in the face for $600!
