anyone purchase their little kid a truck or jeep from Big Toys Green Country?

No S-Class version?

Need something with a backseat so my kid doesn't feel like a loser by having to sit where the help does.

Spray on rubber coating?

Figure it may work similar to how wrapping rubber bands around plastic hot wheel tires did.

Why in God's green earth do they put hard plastic tires on these things? Both get stuck in the yard every 3-5 feet

What kind of quick sand do you have for a yard? My daughter and nephew were rolling through the yard in his power wheels jeep with no issues yesterday, and it was wet out there.

What's the gear ratio on the keep?

I put a 18 volt drill battery in my son's Raptor 4 wheeler. It runs about 1.5 times faster than with the stock battery.

Just cut the cord that runs to the old battery and replace with clips that will connect to the drill battery.

I purchased the Blade XR 4x4 from them earlier this year.

Pros include true 4 wheel power (a motor for each wheel) and foam filled rubber wheels with good traction. Has a horn, lights, and pretend radio with some pre-recorded kid songs. There's a simple plug under the seat to charge. The build quality is adequate. I did sink a few more screws into the roll cage insertion to make it more sturdy for lifting/dragging the car. The remote is helpful for when my son leaves it parked in the middle of the yard.

Biggest negative besides being a bit pricy for a kid's toy is that it is not water-proof at all. We try to keep it under a tarp since there's no room in our garage but 5 year-olds tend to be forgetful. After 3 days in the elements I found it water-logged and the ignition switch didn't work anymore. It runs again after I figured out a way to hotwire it under the hood.
