Default Looking to get back in

Ok so I have been out a while...
my old t-maxx got alot of blue aluminum upgrades,
home made stretched chassis
.21 pull start engine
monster pirtate tires
grave digger lid

loved it but soldit to get my real truck on the road
8" lift and 40" hawgs...

I was searching the internet for something and saw the Tamiya F350. I loved the bruizer and thought id look into this....
but @ 9mph i will pass on the f350....

so now I am still looking at a vehicle...
now the traxxas revo looks cool... and wanted to stick with nitro as they are just fast and fun...
but electric... just saw the summit was coming out.

I am looking for a weekend warrior to play around with my son. 25mph for the summit is fine although my t-maxx was WAY FASTER!!!!
hell i even want to try and put my sons radio shack hummer with matt traxx on the summit [>:]

soooooo

my questions:

1. Should I look at the Traxxas Summit as it is a general overall basher, offroader, can play in snow, water, etc? or go for the revo?
2. I am leaning 90% towards the summit.... as even the f350 needed an optional unit for the led lights and all... so this is included and seems nice (not really a question)

3. what hopups do you see for the summit? 7.2volt batteries?

I used to have a
blackfoot
lunchbox
frog
hornet
hot shot ii

all i know is it will be fun again...
and whatever I get it has to look like my truck
