What voltage are you gonna run? On 14.8 volts, I would look for something that can handle at least 60-80 amps continuosly and peak over 100 amps. A heavy truck with big tires and high traction really draws power on acceleration. You may get away with a weaker cell, but it will be pushed and will not last as long. The 6000mah packs you mentioned: what rate can they discharge at (12c? 15c?)? Got a link to them?
