I bought the car for my godson to their 6th birthday. As I got the package, I have to test the same times ... First impression: good appearance, good workmanship. Then the practical test: Starting by the lawn, over the pavement, about fist-sized stones, curbs, just about (almost) everything can climb this car. The only drawback for me as an adult: me he was too slow. But the car is to be so controlled by a 5-year-old. And the boy has a huge joy with the Truck! The battery must be charged the first two times eight hours after that only 5 hours. One battery charge lasts for about 25-35 minutes, depending on driving style and terrain. However bad the charging process, because the battery does not switch off automatically. This small little problems but slightly offset by a timer.
