Default rookie needs help buying a rc truck!

i'm looking to buy a RC truck. to bash around in my yard. plus i want it to go fast down the street. i don't want to spend alot of money. i have been looking at these for my choices

made by redcat :VolcanoEPXPRO,Caldera10E
made by hpi.: e-savage sport truck
made by traxxas.: stamped xl-5
i know this hobby is expensive. and regardless things will need to be upgraded. if i could afford it i would get the new E-maxx. this is just a starter truck i really only want to spend around $200.00
if it's really worth going around $300-$350 i will. but rather stick to around $200. and buy upgraded charger and batteries. once i get one and save up to buy the E-maxx then i will pass this truck down to by 4 year old son.
i want my truck to pop wheelies. bash around my yard(my yard has a nice hill for jumping) and will go pretty fast. any suggestions with my list or know of a better one?
