I have them all, and the DT handles the best and is the easest to mod the battery. The best idea is the DT and some raminator wheels with threaded axles. That way you can drive any way you want. :-o

I have the DT and would recommend it as well over the other ones. I've heard that with the longer chassis and wheelbase that it is less squirley than the other models. Also like rt450 said, the battery compartment is almost twice the size. I was in my local hobby shop and they had a normal Micro-T and I had my DT and wanted to try out the Micro-T with my Losi Lipo and couldn't get it to fit in the micro-T without having to smash the edges of the battery, which is a huge no-no for Lipos. :-x

As for stability I'd agree with you guys but I find myself using my Baja more...I do't know why but it just feels better for some reason. Of course I'm running it in a giant sand box in a park by my house...if your running on pavement or hard dirt I'd go for the DT but for sand or loose dirt I'd go for the Baja.

I'm running a micro-T with lipo and some other mods. It can get pretty scary on the street, I'm planning on swapping to the DT chassis soon.
