One thing I will tell you though is that the difference between my one Maxx that does 38mph and my dual BL Maxx that does about 50mph is the ability to control it. That 12mph difference is huge as far as controlability goes. Not to mention because of the power difference there was the rear diff that I blew, the 4 CVD's that I have broke and the tranny gears and input shaft that went south as well.
All stuff to consider, especially if you don't have the time now to wrench on it. Because that is all stuff that WILL go out on you quickly if you have that much power.

So what would be the recommended motor, speed control, gearing, and battery setup if I wanted the most power out of truck without breaking stuff? Please advise a speed controller that will allow me to just buy the most powerful motor later down the line when I actually have time to mod the truck with tranny and chassis upgrades. Thanks. Sorry to be asking so much from everyone.
