Powered by a rechargeable 12-volt battery, the truck can drive up to five miles per hour. The car is designed to travel at a max of 2.5 MPH at first, when your child is a beginning driver: when he or she becomes more experienced, just remove the safety mechanism to reach maximum speed!

Previously he has been driving around a "Power Wheels" Jeep that was my daughter's until she outgrew it, so we can give you a head-to-head comparison between the two. The F150 is quite a bit bigger than the Jeep, it came in a HUGE box! It is wider, taller and longer; and has much more clearance underneath. There is some assembly involved as well as applying of decals, but the instructions are good and the assembly is nothing complicated. I haven't seen this mentioned before in the reviews, but the "Monster Traction" feature comes by way of a separate electric motor driving each rear wheel (2 motors total). Typical Power Wheels have a single electric motor driving one rear wheel while the other rear wheel free-wheels. The Monster Traction definitely works, the Jeep gets stuck in certain places in our yard (particularly on the grade changes between pavement and grass) while the F150 easily breezes across those same areas. But here's something you need to know, if you install the low speed lockout on a Monster Traction vehicle, it no longer has Monster Traction! Only the right rear wheel is active at low speed and in reverse. As a result, it gets stuck on all but the most solid terrain in low speed or in reverse. In reading some of the complaints about traction here I'm guessing this is due to low speed running. You've got to keep it on high to take advantage of the Monster Traction driving both rear wheels. Other comments- the construction is very robust like all F-P Power Wheels vehicles, it'll no doubt last a long time. The radio is a neat feature for the kids to play with. Reception isn't fantastic, but they like it just fine. The F150 is nicely finished out and looks close enough to the real thing to make our son feel like he's driving a vehicle rather than riding on a toy. I rate this as an excellent purchase for the money and fully expect it to last many years just as the Jeep has. 19 of 20 people found the following review helpful. Truckin FUN By CactusJack We bought this for our 3-year-old daughter for her 3rd birthday. She simply loves it!!! I had started researching ride-on toys when she was 2 and was torn between a few different models (fisher Price and Perego) and after reading reviews and going to the stores to see them in person we settled on this model - It has been by far an EXCELLENT choice. Assembly was a breeze and took about 30 minutes (not including sticker placement). It is built rather solidly and only required a screwdriver. Of course though, I believe i used a mallet to tap on an item or two. The seat is adjustable to accommodate your child as they grow and it even has fake little seatbealts (velco) to plant the seed of safety at an early age. Not only does my daughter put it on everytime she gets in the truck, but she also buckles in her stuffed animals who always accompany her for the ride. It has a working tailgate and area (bed) for her to put extra stuffed animals, toys, (our cat) and anything else she decides to put back there. we have about an acre of land (bermuda grass) and the truck has done well over the entire yard (our yard is mostly flat). As mentioned by another reviewer, in low speed we noticed an area or two where it had problems going from the grass to the driveway, but in high gear nothing has stopped it yet. We were first worried that perhaps after getting our daughter this truck she wouldn't want to ride her tricycle or big wheeel anymore - it has not been the case. She actually takes all three out of our shed, parks them in the driveway and switches between them as she loses interest. Needless to say, we have spent hours outside watching her go from one to the other on her riding/driving adventures:-) The raido actually works rather well and she loves changing the station trying to
