First off, you're not annoying, you're smart by asking questions. Entry point RC recommendations are always a little tricky. Most RTR kits don't have the build quality and durability needed to survive weekend bashing for very long. People get disappointed because they break parts and end up having to spend more money and time making repairs. On the flip side people don't want to spend a bunch of money and find out RC'ing is not their thing.

A 4wd monster truck is going set you back 300 - 500 bucks depending on features. A Traxxas truck is probably your best option at a reasonable price point. You can also look at the Associated trucks.

Ultimately you will have to decide how much you want to spend. Either way you will have a great time but beware this hobby can become addictive.
