cc-o1 I think is the best trail truck. It has a solid axle rear end with decent flex. If any truck was designed for scale offroad terrain this is it.

TL01 is the cheapest as it can be found everywhere. Basicly a sedan style chassis. Tamiya has made several TL01's with just about every body imaginable from hummers to mustangs.

The CC01 is the most capable, and also the most expensive at probably 150 for a roller. The TL01 is the cheapest but the gearing is crap, and the suspension travel sucks. The TA02 is middle.

CC01 is probably the best, but TT-01 is DEFINATLY the cheapest. I got one for 79.99 with esc, body, etc.

CC-01 I believe is discontinued? You can still find the Touareg kits around at most hobby stores.
It's the best choice for a trail truck of the Ones you listed.
You should be able to find One for $149.00 with stock Tamiya ESC and a stock 540 motor included. A stock Clod body fits on them nicely for a semi scaler/trail truck. I love mine

Stay away from the tt-01 chassis..... weak bumper mounts which the 3 screws that go into the chassis strip out so easily it isnt funny. The cc-01 is the best for bashing, i put a boat esc on it and when you hit reverse in a boat esc its immediate rotational change and i have yet to detonate the gears and or the rear end in 2 yrs of playing with it.
