Default motor/esc suggestions

ok, so my current build is a rc4wd trail finder jeep. im going for a scale build on this one, i want it to be able to do some crawling, but be more of a mud/trail truck, so i want some speed too. (doesnt have to be crazy fast, just not extreme crawling slow) so does anyone have a good suggestion on an esc and motor for this build?

i was thinking about using a traxxas slash XL-5 and a Titan 12T 550
too much power? too much of the wrong kind of power?

The 12t titan is pretty useless for crawling, but the E-Maxx 21t titan is pretty great. Good low speed control and torque with plenty of top end on the cheap. The XL5 has no drag brake and a reverse delay, but it will work. A sidewinder or a FX-R with a BEC would probably be a better performing choice
