HPI Savage X SS 4.6 Kit, best bang for your buck. Best part is you get to choose your own electronics. For less than a grand you can have one nice truck!

if that is your price range I would go with a HPI Baja 5B RTR It is 1/5 scale so it is huuge. And everybody who has one sayy they are a blash to drive.

Consider he is talking about Canadian $1000. I would say go for the Savage XL. That's what i'm going to add to my collection.

The Revo 3.3 by Traxxas is a nice durable truck. You can get up to 70kmh with stock parts and it is very durable.

I highly recommend it!
