Default Best in sand and dirt ?

Looking for something I can take to the beach and run in sand, but also in dirt at BMx parks, should I look for a crawler or a truggy like the Hobbyking Sabertooth ?

something like a 2wd stadium truck looks like lots of fun in sand. With a completely closed drivetrain these types of vehicles should not have issue with sand in the gears and such.

remember the sand is hard on parts and bearings and gets into everything.
If you want to spend a bit more look into the Kyosho XXL VE.... its an awesome buggy and handles the sand very well.. Pull the paddle tires off and throw some good tires on it and bash at any track or around the house.
They are 4S and not super powerful but they are a bit bigger and just a blast all around.
