I say go with the e-revo too. The thing can handle 6S brushless goodness without much drama, unlike the e-maxx which on 4S is already a handful. The e-revo is just a good basher as the e-maxx, and the only upgrades you'll really need are rpm arms, and a metal rear skid plate if wheelies are your thing.

I will never get another Emaxx or Tmaxx unless they are severly updated. They are "cool" trucks. Like a new school Mustang. Looks awesome but lacks in the power department and it has way out dated equipment.
I would highly sugest getting a EREVO over any other RC if you can afford it. Get a Erevo, Spektrum radio, RPM true track, and a Mamba Monster 2200kv motor and esc. You will need some quality batteries too. You could wait until January 16th and buy the "EREVO Brushless Edition". They will sell for around $680ish and you will get the 2.4ghz radio and the Mamba Monster set up. I bought a Erevo roller off ebay, as well as a used Spektrum radio and receiver, RPM TT kit, got the Mamba new, and some two cell 4900mah Flight power EVO250 lipos. I have about $650 into the truck and that is cheap by todays standards. I am cheap and look for deals. Tell Mike what you want and he will steer you strait.
I have had alot of trucks and if you want a no hassle set up get a Erevo. Conversions are cool but its so nice to have a common truck when it breaks. I'm sure you will be happy either way but I break emaxxs faster then erevos. I hate wasting time fixing stuff when I can be driving.
