Default new truck purchase?

Ok, I know I'm probably about to open an overfull can of worms here, but I need to ask..

I have been out of the RC scene for about 2 years now, I have a somewhat modified T-Maxx (the older .15 version) I used to race locally, and I'd consider myself an intermediate nitro RC user..
I'd like to buy a new truck in about a week, and I'm just not sure what to get. I may do a little racing, but it's now a low priority. I'm most likely just going to be doing some fun and bashing. Speed and torque is definitely top of the list, with durability a close second. I will have about $1500 max to spend. I will likely want to modify it a bit after I get it, but I'd like to get something that's not going to NEED upgraded just to be fun. So what's the reccomendation?
I want a big monster truck specifically.. way back, new era had a killer (looking) monster truck, but it seems they're out of it now.. anything in my price range that would be worth a look?
(ducks and covers)
