As far as tough trucks go I think it is down to the LST2 or Savage. I have a Savage and love it. The X design is so much simpler to work on then the older models. I have a friend with an LST/2 and I have to say the savage is the more solid of the 2. The savage has it's weaknesses though. The diffs and dog bones break with lots of power like any truck. The shock shafts can bend. I have never bent a stock shock but I now run the LST2 shocks. Most people who I have seen bend shock shafts are either running 30+ wt oil or have hit something. Other big weakness is the stock tank on the savage. I broke 2 and then did a mid tank conversion which solves the leaning problem some people (including me) have on the stock tank. My mate has broken more tanks on his LST2 though then I have. I have no idea why his tanks break where as with the savage it's fairly obvious.

Edit: Good to hear you are going with the savage. If you break something there are heaps of ways to make it tougher. Just keep the A arms and shock towers plastic and they bounce off just about anything.
