Please point me in the right direction, I have no interest in racing, just something to crash and bash about, fix (Not to often) and do it all over again. I am looking at a Savage RTR kit or maybe a Traxxas? HELLLLP. I am going in circles.

Looking at maybe the following :

Losi 1/8 Raminator Monster Truck
Traxxas Nitro Stampede RTR Monster Truck w/Easy Start Batteries & Charger
