For that price maybe a used savage 25? Not much you can get for under 200$ that can go offroading like that.

save your money and go for a summit, getting stuck while going backwards up a stream in a rainstorm is the most fun I had in rc last year.

I would save up and look for a used SCX10 from Axial it's a great trail rig. There is going to be a lot of cleaning and maintenance if you go in mud all the time though so just be aware of that.

Sounds like a Traxxas Summit is what you need. Waterproof and has front and rear lockers.......right up your alley.
