Do you want to drive onroad/offroad
Do you want to race/bash
Do you want a staduim truck/buggy/monster truck

I would visit your local hobby shop and see what they have on hand. Buy something they stock lots of parts for.

Associated B4RS RTR. $215 with free shipping from Ultimatehobbies.com but it's on order right now. Associated cars are easy to get parts for and the parts are pretty cheap.

My 2 cents.

I've been looking into this truck recently really cheap.
HPI wheely king $185.
i hear with a few minor mods you can make it a lot more serious as well.

I think I would go with the Stampede over the Wheelie King. It's bigger and tougher if you're going for a basher. I've bashed my T4 and it holds up well. Of course I have Lunsford titanium hinge pins and turnbuckles so that helps some. It's a solid truck.

I think an E-Maxx would be a really fun basher, and it would be easy to upgrade to a brushless system once you get bored with the stock speed.

IF You are Looking for a Cheap/fun RTR. Go with The Stampede (AKA Pede) or Rustler ( AKA Rusty). 175 for a Pede, around 160 for a Rusty. I wouldn't go wheelie king cause well... thats all its meant to do.. I don't think it will handle off road jumping and that kinda stuff that well..
