    ISO: Loader & Dump Truck opinions


    So after hyper-focusing on researching equipment to start my "Gold Rush" site, the only piece I've locked down on is the Huina 1580 v5 excavator. Now I'm having trouble narrowing down the Loader and Dump Truck.
    • LOADER: Huina 1583 vs. Double E Volvo E592... I know the 1583 'matches' the 1580, it seems the Volvo E592 might be stronger/more hefty...am I wrong?
    • DUMP TRUCK: Huina 1582 vs. Double E E591 A40G...I would love to get an articulating dump truck like the Volvo E591 (not as big a fan of the Mercedes Benz/ Short flat dump trucks), but know the 1582 'matches' the 1580 as well. I would love to get something like the Tamiya Grand Hauler w/ a dump bed, but doesn't appear there is anything like that RTR for a reasonable price.
    Anything other than these I should look at?

    After researching sites to buy from, I think I will buy from Huina directly if Huina, but Goldland and RC otherwise. I like ToucanHobby's prices, but I don't understand their different SKUs for same model and pricing seems too good to be true. What are other's purchase opinions like?

    EDIT: I just came across Heavy Duty RC, which seems on par with Goldland but lower prices. Anyone have experience with either/both?

    Appreciate the advice and tips,
