Editorial Review:
This motorized Tonka dump truck packs a surprising amount of activity inside its bright yellow, 8-inch-tall, 17.25-inch-long exterior. Three large buttons on the side of the cab control forward and reverse movements and the operation of the dumping bucket and power shovel. The truck's motor will rev and its lights will flash when it's moving, and, just like on a real construction vehicle, the horn will beep when the truck is backing up. The truck can also be moved manually, and two buttons below the dump bucket activate additional horn and motor sound effects. --Chris Burns

Lame:
This looked durable but proved to be quite lame for my 2 1/2 year-old. It's rickety and there is no automatic power off. The batteries last only a few hours if left on. This truck also does not work well manually, it clicks and has no fluid movement- quite a disappointment. I bought the traditional Tonka the next week and we use this one to store other toys. The hand-push truck is a much more fun and imaginative toy.

too much fun:
my two year received this as a very early Christmas gift from his nanny. he absolutely loves it. he caught on very quickly how to operate the truck and move pea gravel. too much fun. wish they had hid the on/off switch. the bottom is the first place he looks on all of his toys to make them "go go"

Tonka Dump Truck:
I have this dump truck at my house for the grandkids. Every child that sees it has to play with it. It entertains for hours!

very noisy:
It was fun (non-stop fun!) for the first couple of days. After that my kids never played much with it. And that couple of days was a hell for us, so loud and noisy this toy is. Not very sturdy either - now it goes backwards just fine, but can't go forward, even with fresh batteries.

What boy wouldn't have fun with this??!!:
My grandson says he likes it ... a lot!! He's 4 years old. He should know what he's talking about ...
